The Social Security Administration (SSA) has made many changes to its policies and procedures in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. These changes have been evolving as the pandemic drags on and SSA’s offices continue to be generally closed to in-person contact with the public. This webcast will provide an overview of the current status of SSA’s policies and procedures, with a focus on local SSA offices, and offer suggestions for how advocates can interact with SSA on behalf of low-income older adults during this unusual time.
