social security mess
 

The fight is getting me down, I am in contact with my congressman. Has anyone had any luck going that route, I sure have my doubts. I even ask them how I can send an e-mail to the president.

one friend of mine from church did and he swears by it.i tried it...nothing really happen.guess there flooded with request like that.anyway his office even had a special form for that with all the right question to fill out.its what he/she was elected to do.remember they will not be there.there "aides"handle all that.this is all just my humble opinion only:wink: and from my own experience.sure all the responses you will get from your post will have there own answers.good place to start is here;)

The best thing a congressperson can do is to get a case out of a quagmire. If there are issues that have stalled the processing, having a congressperson's interest can get the case moving along, or may get you a more thorough answer to your question. However, a congressperson cannot make a favorable decision on your behalf nor demand that SSA make a favorable decision on your behalf. Your case may also prompt a congressperson to push for new legislation or additional funding for SSA to get the work done timely, or not.

If a congressperson or even the president could make favorable decisions for anyone, then they could make them for everyone and why should there even be an agency to do the work if all you have to do is ask your congressperson.
