Just today I had to call my local SS office to update my address because I wasnt getting any info even though my backpay had been deposited. Once they updated my address I mentioned that I hadnt gotten a medicare card either. She was able to pull that info up and simply request a new card. I was told it would take 4-6 weeks. This isnt something you have to make a trip in person to do. Just give them a call and they will take care of it for you. Best bet would be to google your local office and call them rather than the nationwide 800#.
