FO's have different procedures that TSR's have no knowledge or comprehension of. Some offices do not make PE appts--it is all walk in. Good luck with that. Or appts may have not been available for 3-4 weeks, and he did not want to wait so kept calling back, as people do, to get a different answer. There are many reasons--some staffing-related, some claimant-related, as to why people end up going through this type of scenario. Of course, the media never gets the story straight, anyway.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19246708.post-83734416818752096232013-05-03T18:19:23.206-04:002013-05-03T18:19:23.206-04:00Interesting comments considering the DEMs pander a...Interesting comments considering the DEMs pander and sell lies to the most vulnerable in the country. Promising a way out while actually buying their votes while enslaving them to the government dole. It's a sad state of affairs these days.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19246708.post-43747180645840170002013-05-03T17:39:35.567-04:002013-05-03T17:39:35.567-04:00@ 5:23pm: No such luck, Repubs have wanted to kill...@ 5:23pm: No such luck, Repubs have wanted to kill Social Security since 1935, if they get a majority in the US Senate in 2014 and keep control of the House in 2014, Repubs may try to kill Social Security, voters be damned, Repubs only care about their rich campaign contributors, this must not be allowed to happen.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19246708.post-11086250187189795572013-05-03T17:23:36.729-04:002013-05-03T17:23:36.729-04:00CR cannot do a resurection over the phone, you hav...CR cannot do a resurection over the phone, you have to see the person in office to get it done. Would it not have been easier to go to the local office? Somehting in the story does not ring entirely true. We are missing a few puzzle peices here.<br /><br />I agree the agency is understaffed at the FO, DO level. The agency keeps hiring ALJs and support staff, but makes no effort to fortify the front line offices. Methinks there is a fire station or two being closed. If they could just make it annoying to Congress like late flights to fund like the FAA did.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19246708.post-58624079382177904272013-05-03T11:40:55.816-04:002013-05-03T11:40:55.816-04:00I'm assuming he did more than just call 10 tim...I'm assuming he did more than just call 10 times or email prior to going to the regional office for help. SSA wouldn't have been able to handle the matter over the phone.
