We got a letter from them last year telling us we wouldn't get anything for December and I think January. I hit a major panic button. We went to the local office, waited in line as soon as they opened, maybe an hour at the most. Then we met with a really neat woman who told us not to worry, did some magic things on the computer and had a check within a few days. She said when and if we receive a similar letter, about paying back the overpayment due to Roger's wages, just to come in and she'd set us up with a reasonable, affordable deduction. The local office has always done right by us.
