Trying to get an appointment at the SS Office on Cirby Way to present a Death Certificate for a Vetrand who recently passed?

A) Appointment at the Social Security Office

To present a death certificate for a veteran at the Social Security Office on Cirby Way, you can follow these steps:

  1. Contact the Office: It’s advisable to call the Social Security Administration (SSA) to confirm the specific requirements and whether you need an appointment. You can reach them at their national toll-free number: 1-800-772-1213. While appointments are not required, scheduling one can help reduce your wait time.
  2. Prepare Required Documents: Make sure to have the following documents ready:
  • The death certificate of the veteran.
  • Any other relevant identification or documents that may be required by the SSA.
  1. Visit the Office: If you prefer to visit in person, ensure you check the office hours and any specific COVID-19 guidelines that may be in place. If you have symptoms or have been in contact with someone who has COVID-19, it’s best to reschedule your visit.
  2. Follow Up: After presenting the death certificate, you may want to inquire about any benefits or claims that need to be processed, as the SSA will need to update their records regarding the veteran’s status.

If you have any further questions or need assistance with the process, feel free to ask!
