WILL the CRONOVIRUS DELAY SOCIAL SECURITY CHECKS?

Will the cronovirus pandemic delay Social Security checks?

No.  The government is taking steps to be sure that persons on Social Security continue to receive their payments without interruption.

While the Cronovirus is effecting nearly everything else, Social Security payments will continue on schedule.  There is no need to worry.

However, individuals needing to file new disability claims, or those needing to appeal denied claims may be affected.

Social Security offices are now closed to the general public and all business must be conducted by telephone or online (www.socialsecurity.gov).

If you have been scheduled for a hearing to see if you qualify for SSDI payments, the hearing will be conducted via telephone.  If you have an attorney, he or she will represent you via telephone at the hearing, also.  Your attorney may choose to have you come to the attorney's office for the hearing, or you may testify from your home.

We are working every day to help claimants with disability applications and appeals.  We continue to offer.....
