Staff and security were nice, wait was a little over an hour, but that's to be expected. I looked up what I needed and filled out the application before hand, so once it was my turn it only took a minute. I think people need to be a bit more compassionate and realize people's lack of knowledge and preparedness isn't on the employees;)

Extremely rude staff, treat people with zero compassion. I spent 2 hrs waiting to be told to come back another day because the employee helping me wouldn’t let me go get another document out of my car. He was rude the entire 5 minutes of sitting down as if I was wasting his time.

Questions & Answers
Do I need to come into the Social Security office to sign up for Medicare Part B?
Go into the building and ask about merging SSI instead of switching. You'll make a combined supplemental security income based off of both your needs instead of one person's.
You can get your earnings from the social security office and gauge how much your SSI or SSD would be. If you're receiving any form of welfare you can also go to your local family support office and have them provide you proof of income as well.

If I begin receiving SSI benefits starting July 1st 2018, what it my allotted earned income for that year?
I am assuming it is not the full $17,000...and that it is prorated.
Is that correct?

lynn Christy | Oct 18, 2018
Donna Sothern | Oct 18, 2019
I started drawing my SS in Aug. of 2015. My earned income up to that point did not count against me in any way. My earned income through July of 2015 was greater than $17,000.00. I didn't try to make any more money the rest of the year.So whether you can make an additional $17,000.00 after July 2018 I am not sure. Sorry but I don't believe I answered your question very good.
WHAT IS THE WEBSITE TO FIND OUT INFORMATION ABOUT DRAWING SOCIAL SECURITY?
James Rice | Oct 18, 2018
Darkhost | Oct 18, 2019
Type in social security administration. Click on the planet button with the word WEBSITE (capitalized and bolded) put under the planet for your convenience by Google.
You can apply online or call and they can help over the phone. They're short staffed (nothing new there ) and still being strict on covid regulations only letting in a few are a time.

Sheryl Bryant | Jul 19, 2022
Paul Leider | Jul 19, 2022
Mine is the 3rd of each month and I received it yesterday.
I never could get ahold of anyone to make an appointment, so I just went in. Wow that was interesting. They let one person in and 1 person out so there was a big line outside in the rain. We wanted about 1hr outside and 30 min inside. There were only 2 people working the window. The gard did tell me the line goes faster at 8 when they first open up. Wish you luck.
Make sure to block off half a day for your visit and plan on standing outside in line for 1-2 hours. They only have a few windows open and staffed and only allow 15 people in the building at a time (not counting security and workers)

Mary Stout | Mar 21, 2022

Or you can mail them in, I guess

Julie Bond | Oct 17, 2021
Christopher M. Bingham | Oct 17, 2021
I do not believe that having a home or permanent address is a requirement for SSI. Start here and then contact the SSI nearest you directly by phone for more information.
