Message for U.S. Citizens:  Social Security Administration Outreach at Consular Agency Cebu

September 17 to 18, 2024

 

U.S. Embassy representatives from the Social Security Administration (SSA) will conduct an outreach event at the Consular Agency in Cebu on Tuesday, September 17 and Wednesday, September 18, 2024.

 

Services are available from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. We encourage you to arrive early as we anticipate having to turn away some late-arriving customers if they exceed our service capacity. Please ensure that you bring both the original and photocopies of documents that you need to submit to SSA. The SSA representative will keep the photocopies and return the original documents to you.

 

SSA will provide the following services:

Discuss basic entitlement requirements for the different types of Social Security benefits.

Develop benefit claims. Retirement and Disability applications can be completed online at www.ssa.gov. 

Process Social Security number applications.

Resolve post-entitlement issues (e.g., change of address, report of death, Medicare enrollments, direct deposit enrollment, non-receipt of benefits, etc.)

 

Only representatives from the Social Security Administration will be present at this outreach event. Embassy staff will be unable to answer questions regarding American Citizen Services (ACS), the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), or U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).
