    I ‘d like to know when will the social security office open for apply social security in person

  7. Cesar Z.

    It’s frustrating not been help, I’ve been trying to get my new social security card I need to get a job and I can’t because I don’t have my social number.
    I need to make a face to face interview, you should be able to make the appointment by phone.
    Thanks

    Other places can do video interviews or phone interviews. Why SS can’t do nothing and keep saying due to corona virus we can’t open offices? Funny thing is those people who working in SS office may go to protests, parties, etc… Too dangerous to work but fine to do other things.
    Collect tax payers money and do nothing.
    DMV is now open, courts are open, why not SSA?
