have you tried reaching out to your local congressperson's office? They often have staff dedicated to helping constituents with federal issues like this. Might be worth a shot if SSA gives you the runaround
Has anyone else had issues with the SSA website? I swear it's down half the time I try to use it. 🙄
I'm in the same boat, trying to get death benefits sorted for my grandma. This whole process is so frustrating. Sending good vibes your way, OP!
Have you tried reaching out to your local congressperson's office? Sometimes they can help expedite things with federal agencies like SSA.
This! 👆 My rep's office was super helpful when I was stuck in SSA limbo last year.
Has anyone tried contacting their local representative about these issues? Maybe if enough of us complain, they'll actually do something to fix the system.
Good idea! I'm gonna email mine right now. This is ridiculous.
I tried that once. Got a generic response after 3 weeks. But maybe if more people do it...
Careful sharing that kind of info publicly. You could get in trouble.

Man, the government doesn't make this easy, do they? It's like they want us to mess up so they can collect more fees. 🙄 Good luck OP, hope you get it sorted!

Hey OP, just wanted to say I'm sorry for your loss. Dealing with all this bureaucratic stuff while grieving must be tough. Remember to take care of yourself too, okay? 💖
