The Social Security Administration (SSA) has temporarily closed or restricted in-person services at 13 offices across 10 states and one U.S. territory. These disruptions affect residents in Arizona, California, Florida, Hawaii, Iowa, Maryland, Michigan, Montana, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and the Northern Mariana Islands.

Why Are Some SSA Offices Closed?

The SSA has not provided a specific reason for the closures. However, the disruptions are scattered across multiple states and a remote territory, suggesting they may not share a common cause. According to the SSA’s official webpage, possible reasons for office disruptions include:

  • Ongoing construction
  • Inability to permit outdoor waiting areas
  • Other unspecified factors

Note: The SSA has not yet responded to requests for clarification on the reasons behind these specific closures.
