Submit a request for an appointment to apply for SSI and other benefits. Or, help someone else get started. This process takes about 5-10 minutes. We ask for basic information, such as:
- Name, date of birth, and Social Security number of the person interested in SSI.
- Mailing address, phone number, and email address (optional) for the person interested in SSI.
- Your name, phone number, and email address (optional) if you are helping someone else.
After you submit the online request for an appointment, a Social Security representative will schedule an appointment to complete your application. We will send the appointment date and time by mail (and email, if provided) within 7-14 business days to the person interested in applying. In some cases, a Social Security representative may call to schedule the appointment.
