Title: Social Security Assholes
Post by: CG6468 on August 20, 2011, 11:56:02 AM

I asked for a statement of my earnings, since the last time they sent the yearly one out was several years ago.

Here's their email response:

Thank you for contacting the Social Security Administration.

In light of the current budget situation, we have suspended the Request a Social Security Statement service.  In the meantime, you may be able to estimate your retirement benefit using our online Retirement Estimator at

The Retirement Estimator is useless for me, since I'm already retired and collecting SS. I wanted to see if my SSN had been hijacked, but NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! :argh: :mad: :redbird: :killemall:

Something like that is going to take a credit check and a visit in person to your local SS office.

I'd be able to tell just by the income listed for me. I'm gonna call a lady with SS in Joliet, who has helped me in the past and (silently) guided my wife in SS payments.
