First time going to this location and I must say for not having an appointment I got in and out within 15mins tops. Not only was I surprised with the time frame I was in there for, but the service I received from the clerk, a gentleman by the name of Robert was great. He was very informative, assisted me with respect and very efficient. The security officer Mr. Aragon was doing an amazing job keeping everyone in line and allowing certain amount of people in due to regulations of course. It was a great experience for me.

I use my lunch break to update SSN. Everything was fast and great, no appointment needed. The policeman was received and greeted and guided me quickly. The officer handling my case was also very prompt and didn't take much time. I finished everything in 15 minutes and got back to work without delay. This is a great experience here. 👍🏻

I went in here to replace my son’s SS card. Like any govt run facility, I was dreading the wait time and the process. But, I couldn’t have been more pleased with my visit. I was greeted by a very friendly and pleasant fellow at the door who supplied me a mask (which I didn’t have) and gave me helpful instructions as I walked in. I proceeded to the kiosk to get my ticket, and waited about 10-15 minutes for the next available service rep. The rep was also extremely friendly, helpful and accommodating, and was able to process my request in minutes. I was in and out on a Wednesday morning in under 30 minutes without an appointment…Fantastically run and a pleasant experience. Thank you social security!

Was in and out in a matter of 1 hour and 15 mins. They reopened the offices since they closed becayse of covid and I expected it to be worse. Both security guards were helpful and explaining the directions. Only issue I saw were those that didn't speak English, it was hard for security to understand each other. Process is pretty simple for people who don't have appointments. You wait in the outside line to be able to go inside to the kiosk to get a ticket. Once you obtain a ticket, you wait outside until your number is called. Seating inside is very limited due to COVID, 10 person maximum. So do not expect to be sitting while you are waiting. They are still practicing social distancing also, inside and outside so expect that also Typically seats inside open up and the security will let you know, but it's more for the elderly. Bring a lawn chair and wait outside.

When I was there they suggested a appointment. But none were available. We were there too early to apply for SS retirement benefits. I’m going to apply online. Then they will call me for a appointment to bring in the documents. I prefer to walk in. The lobby was full when I walked out. One hour before closing. They open up more windows to get people serviced.

Can i ask questions in behalf of my mom about her benefits? She is bedridden unable to speak and write?

Doge Viper | Aug 22, 2018
Nelson H | Aug 22, 2018

Asking questions on anybodies behalf is fine but the answers has to be from the beneficiary of benefits. You probably can get authorization from family attorney once she accepts your participation via Power of Attorney. Also she should get Social Services to provide a care giver if she is disabled!

You can order a new one but you need to go to the Social Security office in person to prove your ID. There is a life time limit to how many times you can order a card. Ask them I do not work for them. My information is several years old so verify at the SSA office.
