Social Security Administration

Be prepared to wait. People are generally nice but the wait is equivalent to the dmv.

I was actually really impressed with the speed at which they manage to get things done here! When I walked in, I worried that it could take a while because it was pretty important that I manage to get out to Manhattan within a couple of hours. To my surprise they moved really quickly. The only real problem was that the form I purchased was $ 136 and one of the copies given to me only had one of the two pages it was supposed to have and the second one is supposed to have the official seal so it was completely null and void. I didn’t manage to notice this until I got home and it was a major bummer to see something I had spent so much money on was incomplete, so hopefully I won’t end up having to buy it again. Otherwise I would have hit them with a 5.
