The United States will shortly celebrate one of the most major federal holidays, which will have an impact on the Social Security Administration’s (SSA) operating hours.
If you are new to the United States, you may be unaware of the days when the Social Security Administration’s offices close. Federal holidays are the days when all offices are closed, but harsh weather and other events may also affect some local offices, but not all.
The Social Security offices will be closed the next day for Thanksgiving. So, if you need to visit a Social Security office, don’t go on Thursday, November 28, because it will be closed. This will be the Agency’s second day of office closures in November; for your knowledge, November 11 was Veterans Day.
Will the Social Security office be open on December 25?
Following Thanksgiving, there will be another closed day. Social Security offices will also be closed on December 25. This is because it is the day that Americans celebrate Christmas.
As a result, in 2024, Christmas Day will be the final time the Agency closes its offices owing to a federal holiday. Don’t worry, there are plenty of things you can do online, such as:
- Apply for benefits like retirement or disability
- Apply for Medicare
- Appeal a decision
- Review all your information through my Social Security account
- Check the status of an application
- Manage your account settings and personal details like address
- Get direct deposits
- Get proof of benefits
- Check FAQs
- Get an SSA/Medicare card replacement
If not, the Social Security Administration also provides an automated phone number. As a result, you can make calls at any time of day or night, even federal holidays. So, you can contact SSA at 1-800-772-1213.
