you know where to find usFor 80 years, Social Security has been there for you and your family when you need us most. And, finding us at our field offices, where you can speak with an employee face-to-face, is easier than ever!

Our handy Field Office Locator is accessible from your computer and mobile device. On the website, you can enter your zip code to find the address, phone number and hours of the Social Security office closest to you. You can also use this tool to see a map and get directions; if you’re on your mobile device, it will even give you turn-by-turn directions.

Since you are already online, you could skip the traffic and lines by taking advantage of our other online features, too. Check out What You Can Do Online, where you’ll find that many of our services are just a click away!

For example, you use the Retirement Estimator to estimate future benefits, apply for Social Security benefits online and sign up for a personal my Social Security account. Setting up a personal my Social Security account is convenient and secure. You’ll have access to your Social Security Statement, and if you already receive benefits, you can view and print your verification letter and manage your benefits.

Some people prefer doing business in person, though, and that’s why our offices are there! Our employees are passionate about providing you with the best service possible, and we’re proud of our long history of doing so. When you visit us, whether in person or online, we’re always ready to help!

    I AM TRYING TO CONTACT THE IRS ABOUT A STIMULUS PAYMENT THAT DEDUCTED $500 FROM MY $1,200 PAYMENT WITHOUT EXPLANATION… HOW DO I CONTACT THE IRS TO EXPLAIN WHY THEY DID THIS SINCE ALL THE INFORMATION I COULD ACQUIRE SYS I SHOULD GET $1,200, NOT $700 ($1,200 PAYMENT WITH A $500 DEDUCTION = $700 STIMULUS PAYMENT) THEN SSI PAYMENT WAS EXTENDED FROM THE 22nd TO THE 28th (WHOLE WEEK OF PAYMENT DEDUCTED FROM MY SSI PAYMENT… WHAT IS GOING ON ? AND YOUR WEBSITES DO NOT ALLOW A CITIZEN FROM WRITING ON YOUR MESSAGE CENTER, OR SEND YOU AN EMIL NOR LIST YOUR PHONE NUMBERS… I PREFER TO WRITE A MESSAGE OR EMAIL COMPARED TO TALKING ON THE PHONE… WRITING PROVIDES A DOCUMENT WHAT WAS SAID WHEREAS TALKING ON THE PHONE DOES NOT AND BECOMES A HE SAID/SHE SAID SITUATION… YOU NEED A MESSAGE CENTER THAT ALLOWS PEOPLE TO CONTACT YOU IN WRITING AND GET YOUR RESPONSE IN WRITING TO DOCUMENT WHAT WAS SAID…

Please visit the IRS Economic Impact Payments Information Center to answer your questions about eligibility, payment amounts, what to expect, when to expect it and more. If you are unable to find the answer, call the IRS hotline at 1-800-919-9835. Thanks!

    Can’t reach you. Local office only taking appointments, but number they list to get an appointment is no longer in service. Cannot find what I need on web. Trying to call, estimated wait time 1 hour 40 minutes. Totally unacceptable. This experience totally at odds with your claims here that it’s easy to reach you. Seems like the info you publish is simply untrue. While I”m waiting, I keep getting recording referring me to the web. This is insulting, sounds like you are just trying to get rid of me.

      Hi Carol, we are sorry to hear about the difficulties you are experiencing with Social Security. To contact your local Social Security office, please look for the general inquiry telephone number at the Social Security Office Locator. The number may appear under Show Additional Office Information. We hope this information helps.

    I cannot locate the activation code that allows me to log into my Soc Sec account.

  5. Robert B.

    when signing in, where do I find the access code required?

    • Vonda V.

      Hi Cloyette, thanks for using our blog. If you no longer have access to the second factor (cell phone or email address) on your account, and you need to change the second factor, you then can request a reset code online. The system will mail a reset code letter to the address on file. You then enter this reset code online, after signing in with your username and password, to change the second factor associated with your information.

      If you forgot your password, and the password reset questions didn’t work, we can send a temporary password in some circumstances. Check out our Frequently Asked Questions web page for details on how to retrieve or change your username or password.

      If you do not have a my Social Security account, you click on Create an Account to get started. We hope this helps!
