SSA: Retirement

  • Description:

    “Social Security is part of the retirement plan for almost every American worker. It provides replacement income for qualified retirees and their families. This section of our website helps you better understand the program, the application process, and the online tools and resources available to you.”

    NOTE: Typically, the SSA office can meet people in person to facilitate any service provides on the website. While pandemic precautions are in place, the SSA office only has meetings by appointment for extreme emergencies: to assist someone who never had a social security number and needs it for medical or employment purposes.

    The Utica SSA office services people as far west as Canastota, as far east as Little Falls, as far north as Old Forge, and as far South as Earleville.
