I have actually found the ss people to be very good. You often get the best service on the phone after you make up.yout online account. Good luck
I was badgered by government people to sign up for Medicaid when I turned 65. I finally caved and signed up for the hospitalization. My wife went to the SS office a few days later for some reason and they told her I had forfeited all SS for life. I hired an attorney, who said that is BS. I'm 70 now and still working. I hope I can start SS next year.
