13 Social Security Field Offices Are Suspending In-Person Services
Thirteen local Social Security offices will temporarily stop all in-person service and will only be available by telephone.
The Social Security Administration has temporarily closed 13 field offices around the country. Some temporary closures are due to scheduled maintenance and have reopen dates.
Field offices are the "retail" offices of the administration, where people can walk in or make an appointment for basic services, including applying for new and replacement Social Security cards and benefits. Medicare beneficiaries can also get help applying for extra assistance paying for their prescription drugs.
Beneficiaries previously serviced by these locations are directed to call the main number, 1-800-772-1213 or TTY 1-800-325-0778, to receive assistance.

From U.S. Social Security Administration:
"This office is temporarily closed to in-person traffic until further notice. Visit our website to update your personal information, apply for benefits, and access other services.

Locations of temporarily closed Social Security offices
The following Social Security offices will temporarily stop all in-person service until further notice. Assistance will still be available by telephone until 4 pm. Reopening information has not been posted for most of the locations. This list will be updated on a regular basis to keep you up-to-date on any additions to the list and which offices have resumed in-person services.
I have included the direct number for each office for future use. As of today, the numbers are still in use but dead end after a few menu selections; a recorded message encourages callers to use the ssa.gov website to get the information and services they need.
Before you venture out to your local office, visit the SSA's Office Closings and Emergencies web page to check the status of any closures or other delays that might affect in-person services. On this webpage, you can also subscribe for status updates for field offices in your state.
