Why do I have to provide my ss# and DL when someone else sends me money??? My bank already verified this information. Apple company is not a financial institution and therefore, has no business collecting personal identifying information.

Are you talking about Apple Pay? If so, yes those things may be asked the first time you send or receive money using Apple Pay with a particular person.
See -> Identity verification for Apple Card or Apple Cash - Apple Support
It’s not Apple that is asking for that identity verification. It is their partner, Green Dot Bank who is processing the transaction. They handle the person to person transfers made using Apple Pay.

Send you money for what?
Contact Apple Support:
If you are being prompted for such information, then contact Apple Support. They'll have the official answer. If desired, perform a screensharing session with them, to show what is occurring. That will allow them to see this first hand from your perspective.
Apple Contact Us:
--- Contact Us - Choose Locations
--- USA: 1(800)MY-APPLE
--- Proceed from there as Necessary
NOTE: Due to the Coronavirus Pandemic, calls are taking a bit linger to get through. And, that makes sense, because many are at home working out-of-the-house or are taking classes over-the-web, this they have more time on their hands to contact Apple Support. So, it might take a bit to get through to Apple Support. But, just stay on the line, and someone will be with you.
