Anytime you have to deal with Government Employees always bring plenty of CHILL-PILLS AND EXCEDRIN AND STRESS PILLS πŸ’Š, plan your trip there, remember these people are PROGRAMMED, take time to learn to speak their language and bring along every thing you need and know what you’re going to talk about before going there, they work for the Government not you.

Are agencies still doing background checks anymore because I have never seen so much crooks working for these government agencies ever in my life, until now. How do these people sleep at night, when they know they be trying to steal other people's Social Security Benefits, by way of changing a person's records , so they would not qualify, etc. etc. Not to mention the employees who work here in Joliet, IL, there customer service skills are nasty.

c. dev | Oct 26, 2019

If you want your new address to appear on your IL driver's license or identification card, you must additionally apply for a corrected card in person. You cannot replace your license or ID online or by mail. Visit an Illinois SOS office and bring: Your current IL driver's license or ID. Proof of your IL residence (1 document), such as a: Bank statement. Mortgage or rent agreement. Utility bill. You can also do this at the DMV https://www.cyberdriveillinois.com/publications/pdf_publications/dsd_x173.pdf (acceptable and unacceptable documents)

How can I change my last name

Briana Robinson | Apr 28, 2022
x.holly.x | Apr 28, 2022

If you want to legally change your name, you mustΒ fill out and file name change forms with the court. Then a judge will sign a document called an order approving your name change. Also Google has a lot of information about this as well. That's where I got this information.

If I am on disability do I still have to file for S.S . or will I just be transfered to soial security.

Karen Shawmeker | Apr 28, 2022
Wendy Mabry | Apr 28, 2022

You still need to file that's where I made my mistake and they don't let you know your checks just stop or they pro rate them Im only getting $10 SMH

Are you taking walk in and what form of id do i need to go bring in to get a copy of my son social security card.

sherri davis | Mar 29, 2022
Lady Zima | Mar 29, 2022

They are not taking walk-ins where you can see someone. To get an application you can just go there, knock on the door and ask the security guard for one or print it from the website. To just make one trip get a copy of your son's official sealed transcripts from his school and then get the application, fill it out in your car, have your son sign it, and bring everything to the security guard. You can get the transcripts by calling your son's school and telling them what you need (the sealed transcripts to get your son's social security card), they should be able to have that ready for you the same day. Another way is getting medical records but transcripts are the quickest way in my opinion. You should receive the card in about three weeks. Hope this helps. ~"Z"

Can i bring my w2s and drivers license for a replacement ss card?

Shylah Nettles | Oct 26, 2019
c. dev | Oct 26, 2019

https://www.ssa.gov/ssnumber/ We can accept only certain documents as proof of identity. An acceptable document must be current (not expired) and show your name, identifying information (date of birth or age) and preferably a recent photograph. For example, as proof of identity Social Security must see your: U.S. driver's license; State-issued non-driver identification card; or U.S. passport. If you do not have one of these specific documents or you cannot get a replacement for one of them within 10 days, we will ask to see other documents. Any documents submitted, including the following, must be current (not expired) and show your name, identifying information (date of birth or age) and preferably a recent photograph: Employee identification card; School identification card; Health insurance card (not a Medicare card); or U.S. military identification card. Note We may use one document for two purposes. However, you must provide at least two separate documents.
