Recent reviews from visitors to Social Security offices in Cottonwood, ID.
The Atlanta Social Security office gets the job done. Waited about 45 minutes to enroll in Medicare. Bring a book.
I went to apply for survivor benefits and the process itself was smooth, but finding the Blackfoot office was confusing. Better signage would help.
Excellent service at the Bern social security office. The rep who handled my case to file for disability benefits was patient and thorough.
Not a great experience at the Bellevue social security office. Came to apply for a social security number and the wait was unreasonable. At least the staff was polite.
Visited the Bayview office and waited almost 90 minutes just to apply for retirement benefits. The building was hot and uncomfortable. Staff seemed stressed.
Went to the Basalt office to update my name on my social security records. Staff was friendly and the whole thing took about 30 minutes.
The Banks Social Security office needs more help. I came to update my name on my social security records and sat for over an hour before anyone called my number.
The Bancroft social security office had a smooth check-in process. I was there to file for disability benefits and it only took about 40 minutes total.
