The SSA deals with claims for retirement, disability and survivor benefits, Social Security number applications as well as all post-entitlement issues such as changes of address, non-receipt of checks, and termination of benefits due to death.

American Citizen Services can provide basic information and forms regarding Social Security checks and acts as a disbursing agency for Social Security checks.
