New SSA Office Opens in San Antonio, Texas

It takes many disability applicants more than 1 year to receive Social Security disability benefits, which is why it is baffling that some states have closed Social Security Administration (SSA) offices or plan on furloughing state employees. These cost-cutting measures only increase wait times. Fortunately for San Antonio, Texas, that area of the country is bucking the national trend.

According to San Antonio Express-News, the SSA recently opened a new SSA office near North Star Mall on Isom Road in San Antonio. Officials cite extensive growth as the reason for opening a new office in that area of the city, which was previously not served by a local office.

About 54 employees work at the new San Antonio SSA office. The city now has 4 offices, which will allow more disabled individuals to apply for Supplemental Security Income (SSI), disability benefits, survivors' benefits, and more. This will ideally reduce the long wait times experienced by most disability applicants. If you would like to learn more about the SSA offices in your area, contact your lawyer.
