Guest guest Posted May 17, 2006 Report Posted May 17, 2006 Dear ers, Anyone applying for SSDI and SSI please read: It is NOT necessary to visit an SSA office to apply for SSDI. Instead, go to the online website and apply there. All your information goes right into SSA's computers - hence, no lost paperwork. But, keep a copy for yourself. For SSI applications, USE THE PHONE, call up the SSA office, say you want to apply for SSI. They will set you up with a TELEPHONE appointment at a certain day and time. They are very prompt when they call you, so be sure to sit on your phone at the designated time. All you have to do is answer the phone when they call and your application will be started at that time over the phone. Simple, huh? I mean why go to an SSA office if you can save your feet, muscles and nerves by doing things on-line and over the phone? Only go into an SSA office IF they ask you to come in. Even attorneys contact SSA by phone, unless they need to check on a 'missing' file or something else. ~ Gretchen Quote
