Went here to day not for SSN stuff but for a Disability hearing. The place is very quiet. We…read morewere the only ones there when we arrived at 0900. A few others came and hour later and it was still quiet. While the hearing was going on, I sat in the waiting area and talked to the individual providing security. He is actually part of Homeland Security, he's not a contract business. Found that interesting. He was a great guy, passed the hour and half pretty fast chatting with him since it wasn't busy. Place is clean. There was another older gentleman on the other side of the sliding glass window answering phones. That was sort of weird actually, he was a bit loud even even with the window closed. Building is nice. Not sure it's age, tho it doesn't look old. Been well kept. Exterior shares a cobblestone drive courtyard with a high rise hotel. It's really pretty out there with all of the trees. If you come here, it's because you have to, it's not a place to recommend as it's not an elective place to attend. Tho, if you do have to come, it's a pleasant experience.

So... We all know government agencies are somewhat nonsensical :)…read moreTook a friend to get a replacement for their SS Card, not a bad wait. Here's the kicker, at some point a certified birth certificate is not acceptable? Go figure.. She was told needed a doctor's statement with name & dob signed & stamped!! Kid you not! The response to shock was "I don't know this is you" This says welcome FRAUD. We all know there are bad actors in every profession. So you could create multiple versions of identities. Sent request to Doctor office, stated had to be stamped. Finally got the letter, no stamp (they don't have one) Went right back, 20-25 minutes later process completed. Birth Certificate works to get a passport (at least it did) Can you think of any reason it would not be accepted for replacement SS Card & since when? Oh! If you are trying to get SSD for anyone this after 400+ days. 1st thing I heard when I got a person is well you know Covid-19 backlog! Additional fact this is for Widow's benefits spouse passed 11/2024. recording says 200 days

If she sends it, I'll gladly fill it out and return it. She swore she would, and if she didn't have it back in 2 weeks, she'd cut our disability payments, making us homeless. Of course she hasn't sent it. I called to ask to speak to a manager and never got to bc "they're all busy." Luckily I'm resourceful and found it online and filled it out there. It's being processed without her interference.

I made an appointment on their website a few weeks in advance. I would highly recommend doing this so you're not stuck waiting any longer than you need to. We showed up about 20 min before the appointment and checked in using the link they either email or text you with. In total from walking in to walking out it probably took about 20 minutes. We were called up to window #5 and the gentlemen who helped me was great. He was very quick with my request but not in a rush kind of way. He was super nice while fulfilling my request. Thank you McKinney office for getting me on my way quickly and having it go smoothly!

The security guards are extremely sarcastic and unprofessional, I don't know if they were former detention officers or just waiting for ICE to accept their application, but this definitely isn't the place for them. Some people they tell to throw their drinks/snacks away, others they don't; all the while the security is currently holding a Monster can himself. They have 3 guards in this room to keep the "temperatures" down, yet pick and choose which rules and who to enforce them on whenever they need a quick little boost to their ego.

Given the current cuts DOGE went about with a chainsaw, one would expect the SSA to be off pace a great deal. Well you'd be wrong. My experience has been exemplary. They seem to have really stepped up their efforts to still provide the best service. I expected this to take time given the numbers of physicians I see, specialty care, records from more than 6 different offices or agencies trying to be precise with details. I was under no illusion this would be a fast process. I wouldn't want it to be. Decision of this magnitude deserve time so they can be thorough. Given all that, and the people there having to go in to work under pressure of threats to their very careers and livelihoods? That alone would crush the spirits of even the toughest worker, so I fully understand they are fighting a battle now, yet they dig in. I feel for every worker out here in this new environment of fire first, ask questions later. I for one could be more proud of the job they do. We're all going through a struggle, some of us more than others. It's good to have an agency within our government that is here to help make that struggle more bearable, less alone. 5 stars isn't nearly enough these days. IMHO, they are truly doing a bang up job no matter the personal outcomes. Peace folks.

Fair Park is certainly showing its age in a lot of ways, but it remains a gem in Dallas. The area…read moresurrounding the park has been cleaned up a bit so it feels safe. I like that parking is ample, there is easy access in and out of the park, and the walking paths are wide and well maintained. The State Fair is obviously the best known activity at Fair Park, and second the OU-Texas football game at the Cotton Bowl, but beyond that there is actually a lot of other attractions. Our recent trip was to the aquarium but along the way we encountered the farmers' market which I did not even know about. There were maybe 20 vendors selling all sorts of canned, bottled, and packaged edible items, as well as non-food arts and crafts. It was not as extensive as some markets we have been to, but it was pleasant enough. Our destination was the aquarium where they were featuring dissection of squids for kids. It certainly is not the biggest we have visited, but it is still fun for kids. Favorites were feeding the sting rays ($5 for food) and having minnows eat the dead skin off your fingers. Other than that, it was fun just to stroll around and look at the people, plants, birds, and turtles. It is all very family friendly and a great way to spend some time on a nice weekend day.
