Sailormilan2 Posted January 20, 2012 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 I signed up for Social Securty Retirement. So, I guess it's official now................I am now an old fart, geezer, crotchity old man. Only problem is, I signed up online 3 weeks ago, and it says to check back in 5 days to make sure it has been processed. So far, they have not yet approved my application................I do hope this is not a sign of things to come. On the upside, I told my new lady friend that I was now an Old Fart because of Social Security, and her reply was, "You had better not be!"

pacrat Posted January 20, 2012 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 SSI moves at the rapid pace of a US Government Beaurocracy. Which is to say a little faster than a slug, but not quite as fast as a snail. Even after processed and approved. It can take months for first check to show up. But when it does the first one is [paid back] to the date of acceptance and is a sizable one.

Spiris Posted January 21, 2012 Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 How about curmudgeon? Hey, hey, I resemble that remark. Sometimes it takes a while to see the first check, but they'll start coming quite regular, especially with direct deposit. Spiris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
