All local Social Security
offices will be closed to the public for in-person service starting
Tuesday, March 17, 2020. This decision protects the population we
serve—older Americans and people with underlying medical conditions—and
our employees during the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. However,
we are still able to provide critical services.
Our secure and convenient online services
remain available at www.socialsecurity.gov. Local
offices will also continue to provide critical services over the
phone. We are working closely with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC),
state and local governments, and other experts to monitor COVID-19 and
will let you know as soon as we can resume in-person service.
