"I brought a client here yesterday and she had a horrible experience. The individual my client spoke with started questioning how she came into the US and denied helping my client. I thought maybe there was a misunderstanding, so I tried speaking with him myself. He refused to speak to me without her. He would not assist her even though I had been to this office with her multiple times in the past and the other individuals assisted her. He was rude and made my client feel very upset and unsafe. When I asked for a supervisor, we waited for over an hour and no one came out to talk with us, so we left."

"I've been to this location twice, one for myself and once for my dad to update our citizenship status. It was an absolute pleasure to be served by Mr. Barnett both times. The wait time wasn't too long even with a lot of people present. I'd definitely recommend this social security office location."

"Very knowledgeable, friendly, and professionals. Atmosphere nice, restrooms clean."
Maria Ramirez - February, 2020
"No parking. Rude staff. Super long wait times. They don't respect the citizens."
Bill Palmer - November, 2019
"The wait is usual for any Social Security office. There are times that are busier than others so prepare for that. I come here for my son and compared to the ones in NYC I can tell you there is a big difference. There is a security guard at this location that greets people as they walk in, will allow you to hold his arm as he walks you out, and is just so polite. He is the reason for the 5 stars."

Which Social Security benefits am I eligible for?

How do I report a death?

Funeral homes typically handle reporting of a death to the SSA. However, you will need to provide the funeral home with the deceased’s Social Security number for them to do so. Note that deaths cannot be reported online. If you want to report the person’s death yourself, call the SSA at 1-800-772-1213 (TTY 1-800-325-0778) between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. Monday through Friday. You also visit your local Social Security office in person.

What should I do if I get a call from a potential Social Security scammer?

Scam calls from Social Security have increased, particularly since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. These fraudsters might claim there is a problem with your Social Security account, benefits, or number. They will often solicit or demand some form of payment in exchange for resolving the problem.
If you receive a questionable call, hang up and immediately report the call directly to the Office of the Social Security Inspector General. As new scams emerge every day, it’s critical to stay informed of the latest scams in order to keep yourself and your finances safe online.
