    I spoke to someone in the Burbank office yesterday who asked that I call back first thing this morning since the person I needed to speak to was not in yesterday. She has everything ready for me this morning since the correct person is in but I cannot get through. I started calling right at 9am as asked and get cut off every time.

    There is no good way to reach the burbank office. The 888 number always says ' All the agents are busy' and just hangs up. The 800 number does not have much information.

    I previously applied for a Social Security card on December 29th and I have not yet obtained it. I called and she informed me that it was sent in January, but unfortunately I did not receive it yet, knowing that I presented to my son on the same date, the same address, and it arrived to him about a month ago.

    I was in today 1/6/20 .. I spoke with a man about my issue on how they were taking funds out of my social Security for Medical. I didn’t sign up for it when I started with Social. I had a lawyer for this , I won my case an then I was assigned with a meeting at Burbank location . I had the opportunity to take medical along with Social security, but was talked out of it .. because I was going to receive my husband’s medical. I was told if I’d take medical.. I would have to pay back into the system. So I signed a form there not to take the Disability? I explained a little to the man ? An he said oh that’s something diffident .. yes I know that’s why had this appointment when I signed up from the beginning. Now I was informed I am not going to get back the money they took out for medical? Please I need a appointment with someone to go over everything From when I first started Social.. never signed up for medical An I never received a form in November 2019 ??

    Dear Sir/Madam: I was previously there in 2008 and was given the chance to apply for my social security number. I was given a temporary letter but was not able to get hold the original card. I heard that SSN is forever but sad to say I left US Nov 2008 and did not have the chance to follow it up. I am planning to take NCLEX-RN and I need my social security number. I am hoping if you could help me with my problem with regards to my social security number. I was hoping to contact you through email but it says you don't have. I am at the moment residing in Singapore. Hope I can get an asap reply. Respectfully yours, Menchie

    Want to make an appointment with a live person in the Burbank Social Security Office. Every time I have tried to telephone there is an hour or more wait. I just want to make an appointment so I can discuss my options. It says to make an appointment otherwise I will have a long wait, well it has been a long wait on the telephone trying to make an appointment.
