In December 2022, Social Security updated its homepage with a new design to help you find what you need more easily.

SSA.gov is visited by over 180 million people per year and it is one of its most important tools for providing efficient and equitable access to service. Jack Myers with Social Security indicates they serve the number of people who needs them when they greatly outnumber its representatives. 

Just a few of the many things you can do on our website include checking eligibility for benefits or saving time on an application for a Social Security number or card. Replacement card applications for an adult can be completed to completion online in most states if you have a DL or State ID.  Myers nots even if the application can’t be completed online, starting it online will make your experience in the office faster and easier.  Our interactive tool will walk you through the process and help you figure out which path is best for you including what types of documents you’ll need to bring.

Many Social Security services can be enhanced by or will need to be used in conjunction with your personal mySocialSecurity account. Check out the redesigned homepage today at www.ssa.gov .
