Helpful tips:\n- Don't go at lunch. This will cause you to be at the SSA for 2.5 hours. \n- Take a book or something to occupy your time. \n- Don't take your children, it only creates a more hostile environment. \n- Help everyone out and learn what you should bring prior to showing up and fill out all necessary paperwork that can be printed off the website. Makes things go quicker."^^ . "0"^^ . "3"^^ . .
