Go green by going online

May 12, 2008

District manager in Marshall



With Earth Day recently behind us, many people have stepped up their efforts to go green. And there are a number of things you can do, including planting a tree and recycling your plastic, glass and paper.

But what’s even better than recycling your paper is not having any paper to begin with.

Going green is yet another of the many reasons to complete your business transactions with Social Security online. You can complete all of your paperwork with a lot less paper.

Whether you want to apply for retirement benefits, request a replacement Medicare card, report a change of address or direct deposit if you are currently receiving benefits, or take charge of your retirement planning, you can do it on our Web site.

There’s no need to drive to your local Social Security office. Don’t wait in traffic when your Social Security business can be done from the comfort of your home or office.
