| - So back in 1986, my parents went to the SSA office to get my brother and I social security numbers. And upon doing so... Wait for it... They put down my date of birth wrong! I went about life just fine until the Real ID Act was implemented. And upon coming to this SSA office for a new SS card, I learned the truth - was I born on the 8th or 9th of September? My parents say the 8th, but the federal gov says the 9th. Thanks mom and dad!
The first wait was horrendous. About two hours worth of waiting. Thankfully, the guy at window 15 was very nice. And instead of making me wait in line all over again the next TWO times over two days I had to come here to get everything all straightened out, he had me just come right back to his window. He remembered me, remembered the issue, and got it all taken care of. (I was, in fact, totally born on the 8th, not the 9th.)
So while the wait is excruciating, the employees (er, at least the one I interacted with) was awesome. So it all evens out to 3 stars (can a gov agency really ever get more than 3 stars anyways?).
If you decide to come right when they open, get here extra EXTRA early. The line starts forming at least an hour before the doors open. When you walk in, you go to a machine, push the appropriate button for the reason for your visit, and take a number. And then the waiting begins...
