Social Security’s Online Services - Social Security Administration
Doing business online with Social Security “has never been easier” claims this blog by Social Security’s Dawn Bystry, who is Deputy Associate Commissioner of the Office of Digital Communications. And if you’ve ever tried calling Social Security for help, or simply dropped into your local Social Security field office seeking assistance, you will undoubtedly agree that using their online service capability is far easier. In fact, you can do almost everything online, but certain services, like applying for survivor benefits, require direct in-person contact. Although much information is accessible by anyone, the key to accessing your personal information, as well as performing certain actions, requires that you first create you online “my Social Security” account, and a link to do that is included in this Social Security Administration blog.
