Do You Have Any Suggestions On How I Can Get Social Security To Pay Me My Back Pay?
While receiving a small spousal benefit, I applied for my maximum benefit in December 2020. With my 70th birthday in March 2021, I expected my first benefit payment to being in April. Nothing was received untill June. I can not get the underpayment due for April and May. Any suggestions on how to rectify other than phoning my local SS office. Dan
Hi Dan. The only other suggestion I have for you is to contact the offices of either your U.S. congressperson or one of your U.S. senators. Inquiries initiated by members of congress can often get Social Security to expedite the resolution of a problem.
Best, Jerry
