I called the main SSA number, and was offered several appointments within the next month at various local offices. A 9am in Hoboken was the first available. Always a good idea to get the first appointment if possible, in order to limit wait time. I was seen within about 10 minutes by Ms. Acosta. She was fantastic! Super nice and very helpful. She gathered the information she needed from me, then guided me through filling out the forms. When I made a mistake on one form, she was very patient with me and got me on the right track. Mission was accomplished, and Ms. Acosta made it as pleasant as could be. When I let Ms. Acosta's supervisor know how terrific she was, they both seemed very happy to hear the service was great.

I made an appointment and didn't take too long for them to call me BUT then I noticied later on…read morethat I was missing another tax document so I walk back to Hoboken and the guard let me go in and see if I could find the same man I spoke before on my appt but he wasn't around (I guess out to lunch) so I had to select another # and this time I selected "other" and it took a longer for them to call me again. It took me almost all day to take care of everything I needed to take care that day. Today (3/16/26) I tried calling the office and I was on hold for a long time and the called dropped so I called again and stayed on hold until thank God someone came to the phone line and helped me. The agent spoke with me patiently and provided the information that I needed. Couldn't resolve anything at that moment but will wait 3 days to check if my direct deposited went through. Not easy to be without a monthly income. Thanks Hoboken Social Secuirty Office. But before I go, I do want to tell you that there is a guard in this office that was very unfriendly and I didn't like that.

Whoever keyed in our address got it wrong and caused a delay in our passport delivery. Their paper system is highly prone to error, and obviously there's no address validation. A voice GPS is way more accurate at taking addresses. They call you from a number labeled UNKNOWN. It took forever to wait for an agent on the phone to pickup. Gave up after 2 hours of waiting - quality time lost with my family. They don't return your voice mail. They must get a ton of phone calls to fix their own errors! Inefficient, ineffective, waste of time and our tax dollars! How can you trust such an agency to handle one of your most important documents?!! Problems like these must be fixed at the source to make life better for everyone. Government agents should do more productive things than to fix sloppy clerical errors, and we citizens need to go about our daily lives not waiting forever on the phone!

I worked there for about 6 months. It was bizarre. I'll give you a couple examples:…read moreI wore headphones sometimes. Lots of people did. My manager told me that I have to buy smaller headphones because someone higher up thought my headphones were too big. One time it was after 5, I was working late, so I put my headphones back on. And the next day my manager and her manager had a meeting with me about the size of my headphones because someone high up, who never identified themselves, were offended by my headphones. There were no rules about headphone size. They were just regular beats headphones. It's weird that some person, apparently an important one, called my boss, and her boss in, to tell them to have a meeting with me about not wearing headphones, even after hours, even away from my desk. I was not allowed to have headphones on in the building. Not weird enough? I've got more. My manager was a sociopath so I often had to work late. At a certain point, they told me that I was not allowed to be in the building after 6. I was allowed. There was no rule against it. Others did. They just singled me out. Apparently, some prior employee had been bringing people into the office after hours to do....something with them. So they were sensitive about it. Need more weird stuff? For about a week it smelled like a dead animal in the office and then it went away. Never found out what that was. Need more? At one point, my manager told me that I have to tell her when I leave my desk. So, I had to tell her when I was going to the bathroom. I was 30 years old at the time. Again, my manager was a psychopath. At one point, her boss told me that he is actually scared of her and that she had previously worked in the Parks department and had gotten at least 3 people fired. Finally, here's when I decided to quit: My manager had a meeting with me and her boss in order to embarrass me. She brought up a project and I showed it to her. Of course she said it should be like XYZ, and I said, that's what I did the first time. She asked me to pull it up. I opened the folder with 22 drafts of this project and showed her the first one I did which was like XYZ and reminded her that she told me at the time it needed to be like ABC. She basically openly hated my guts from that point forward, and like I said, she like getting people fired. I know what it looks like when a manager is trying to get an employee they don't like fired. So I left. I get paid well over twice as much now without being abused and harassed. Also, I won't get into specific but I was also aware of a lot of things they did that the general public would not have been happy about. At one point, a developer outbid the city for a piece of land and they decided to sue him. When asked about on what grounds, they pretty much shrugged and acknowledged it was just to eff with the guy and make him waste money in court and with lawsuits as some form of retaliation for the city not getting the land.
