Muy buena, profesional, amable, buena comunicación y sobre todo me ayudó en lo que necesitaba.
My experience was great, easy to understand and it loads fast. Reliable
My experience could not have been better. The person with whom I spoke was very professional, polite, impressive and knowledgeable.
This was a little time consuming but I totally agree with the procedure. Customer service was outstanding
As I titled it, the human/Agent makes it all easy for you.
They are professional and very competent. They are very patient and will help you in any way possible.
My problem was with getting to the Human/Agent, in the first place.
There were a number of problems with trying to get all the documents to square with each other if you don't have gas or water bills.
My piece of advice would be to stick to the State Driver's License, W2s and the Health/Insurance card.
And make sure all the info on each match.
Also have a computer whose audio and video work. Or inform them that they can only contact you by phone for the Video chat. Saves a lot of time and frustration.
It was quick and easy also the guy that help me was very helpful and talked me step by step with it

Completely satisfied either the entire experience.
Through and complete process in accessing ssa. Verified my identity
Not a pleasant one but I understood why the process was performed that way.
My experience was a thorough, 3-step authentication process. It consisted of biometrics, documentation and a live personnel who completed its verification.
