Sometimes a slight oversight can have disastrous consequences.
This Colorado woman had been communicating with the Social Security Administration (SSA) when she was reporting her mother’s passing to the organization. During this time, she was asked to provide her own Social Security number, for identity verification purposes.
But soon after, she was informed by her local bank that she was listed as deceased. This type of SSA error, which is not all that uncommon, causes huge problems for those affected. This woman is now trying to manage life without being able to verify her identity, and she’s facing financial difficulties like being unable to receive her tax refund.
We hope that this woman and anyone else impacted by a problem like this gets a speedy resolution.
Help The Seniors Center Protect the Future of Social Security
The Seniors Center is committed to finding solutions to strengthen and protect the Social Security Trust Fund. Social Security is a contract between citizens and the government. Money deposited in the Trust Fund should only be used to pay benefits to eligible recipients.
The Seniors Center is demanding Congress finally put a stop to the careless borrowing and spending by greedy politicians that has put our Trust Fund and our secure retirement in jeopardy.
At The Seniors Center, our goal is to help seniors, and we’re doing that by protecting the future of Social Security. Retirees shouldn’t have to worry about losing their hard-earned benefits to taxes or the agendas of greedy politicians. If you agree, we invite you to sign our petition today! And follow The Seniors Center on Twitter and Facebook for more updates!
