login.gov owned by GSA allowed access 12 FEB 2025. 13 MAR 2025 claims both, email and PW not in system. Third party Corp. That GSA hired is of no help and refuses to provide name of Corp. For complaint. SSA does not respond to site filled email option. SSA telephone rep. Must speak to elderly female who is only able to mumble. They reuse to help her male Son. This administration is bad, as was the previous administration.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[And reading about sorting out the elderly people who are possibly deceased and still receiving social security your site States you wait 3 years for somebody who&#039;s not receiving Medicare benefits I think that&#039;s far too long anybody who is not received benefits say after 12 or 15 months should be reviewed essentially what you&#039;re doing is opening somebody up to be being paid for two or three extra years anybody in the 90s plus sees the doctor at least once a year I&#039;ve never met anyone in that bracket that doesn&#039;t see a doctor frequently]]></description>

This is the easiest way to solve any shortfall. I proposed this to GW Bush years ago. Keep raising the cap say 50K the first year and 100K the second year and then 150K every year thereafter until you get to the tax applying to the first $25 million of income. Adjust by inflation value after that.]]></description>

Who is keeping track of the recipient collecting Social Security benefits?? I think that there should be an annual system that recertifies eligible benefits to verify that the recipient is still alive. If no response regardless of age, benefits should be halted until verification. Go online to the account or visit SSA office in person to verify.
For example, to continue food stamps or CalFresh in CA, eligibility must be confirmed every six months to continue benefits. Our Social Security system is so broken with limited staff, placing our USA government in trouble.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[I&#039;m 69&#039;, last year, before Trump Admin. was elected or appointed, The SS Admin. got done witholding $750 that I was over paid as a child of by passed away father in 1967&#039;. I was overpaid because I was getting benefits because I was in College in 72&#039; collecting SS. However, the SS found my GPA was below a 2 point GPA, as per rules, requiring a 2 point GPA, I was over paid.
My point is, the SS Admin. was and is working on being &quot;smart&quot; and accountable. I say this with direct knowledge, no &quot;foil hat&quot;. 50 years ago, I was over paid and they collected $750 bucks.
Incidently, I had already repaid that overpayment in 85&#039; because they sent me a bill. But, I did not save the reciept from 40 yrs. ago, they did not save theirs either, except for the debit, so I paid twice, and my father paid once. He never collected any benefits before he died in his fifties.]]></description>
