Social Security Offices in 10 States Temporarily Closed: Here’s the Closure List
Affected recipients must make appointments or use the agency website or phone lines, as offices in 13 states and territories limit walk-in service.
- Social Security Administration offices across 13 states and territories are temporarily closed or limiting in-person services this week, disrupting access for beneficiaries who rely on face-to-face help.
- Operational challenges like construction, safety limitations, and physical space constraints prompted these temporary closures; the SSA confirmed that disruptions are temporary and will be resolved soon.
- To check whether a local office is affected, residents should enter their ZIP code into the SSA's online office locator, or call the national 800 number for assistance.
- The agency recommends using its website, "My Social Security," to manage benefits and update information, while anyone requiring in-person service must schedule an appointment in advance.
- While most locations nationwide remain open, the list of offices limiting in-person service is growing in the coming weeks, potentially delaying benefit claims for seniors and disabled Americans.
