In a notice to customers, the agency directed people to check the current status of their local office before visiting. "The operational status of your local office, card center, or hearing office in Oklahoma has changed," the agency said.
The SSA also reminded the public that a visit may not be necessary, noting that many services can be handled online.
Customers can review their latest Social Security statement and earnings history, estimate retirement benefits, and check the status of an application or appeal through their online account.
Benefit applications available online include retirement, disability and Medicare benefits, along with appeals of medical decisions. Account holders can also change their address, set up or change direct deposit, print proof of benefits and print their 1099.
The agency said people can find answers through its online FAQs and request replacement Medicare or Social Security cards. It encouraged the public to create a personal my Social Security account to manage their benefits digitally.
