I am using AES256 algorithm to encrypt SSN ( because I want to decrypt that and show it to user on UI ).

Will it be ok to store SSN specific salt and encrypted password in same table ?

If you "encrypt" with SHA256 you will be very disappointed when it's time to decrypt it. That's when you'll discover that SHA256 is a hashing algorithm. – President James K. Polk Nov 11 '19 at 14:36
@JamesReinstateMonicaPolk : sorry I meant to say AES256 instead of SHA256 – Sagar Nov 17 '19 at 15:18
