What Can I Send A Change Of Address Request?

I need to change the mailing address as we have moved. What address can I send the change to? I hate online forms and always mess things up and just want to send a simple letter with a change of address. HELP!

Hi,

Social Security doesn't have a specific form to use for requesting an address change. You could mail a change of address request to your nearest Social Security office, but it would probably be better to call them instead at 1-800-772-1213. Social Security would prefer that you use their online service (https://faq.ssa.gov/en-us/Topic/article/KA-01711), but if you insist on using the mail you should be able to use the following website to locate the address of your servicing Social Security office: https://secure.ssa.gov/ICON/main.jsp.

Best, Jerry
