    I asked if I could use a photocopy of my driver's license as a valid ID. The man on the phone said yes. I finished the papework and a week later an envelope arrived with a notice that my application was rejected on the grounds ofan invalid ID.You CANNOT use a photocopy of your ID.nAlso, If you try and call the office you have to go through a 4 minute prerecorded message before you can talk with someone who's permanently working from home. There's a decent chance you'll be put on hold for a while before you actually get to talk with anyone.nIf you need anything from this office, schedule a month in advance. There is no rush to get to you.

    They legit put my address in their system wrong and mailed my marriage certificate and ss card to someone else. Been on hold for days trying to get it fixed but nobody can figure out how to help or return my voicemails.

    Would it hurt for them to stay open at least one hour later? I have been trying to get in to see someone about changing my name on my social security card and some of us work and can't get in before 4pm.

    I have recently gotten married and called the Great Falls social security office to change my name. When I spoke with the guy on the phone, he told me I needed to send my drivers license. I told him it was illegal to drive without a license, he told me to make a copy and carry that and I would be fine. I asked if I could just make an appointment as I would be in Great Falls in the next few weeks, he said,Sure you can, but you'll be looking at an empty office, we're working from home.This still did not sound right so I called my local police department to verify this information. They stated this is illegal and copy of your license does not replace your actual license and said you should never mail your actual drivers license in the mail. I then called the Great Falls office again and let him know this. He told me it is my choice to drive so it's not his problem. I asked if I could send my birth certificate as that has my information as well, he told me that doesn't count. I told him I found out from our local agency (small towns are very helpful!) that you don't need your license unless the name change documents are greater than 2 years. He told me I could send whatever I wanted, but if I didn't have my ACTUAL license, he won't even look at the documentation. This man was VERY rude and did nothing to help me. I have been in contact with another social security office in another town who also said you do not need to mail your license. Please, DO NOT MAIL YOUR LICENSE! There are two types of marriage licenses, if you have the more detailed one, a drivers license does not need to be mailed. The information that the Great Falls Social Security office is wrong.

    Will not send my actual drivers license to them via mail... been trying to get my daughters so card for over a year... don't understand why they are so special and don't have to open the office. Get off your ssses people!:do your job!

    I am unsure why the social security office gets to be closed yet restaraunts are required to be open? I'm pretty sure having my daughter's social security information for tax purposes is more important than getting a cheeseburger. This process has been so frustrating.nnUpdate :nnJulie reached back out and was able to help me with my issue and save me from having to refile some paperwork which I really appreciate. I do feel that all social security offices should be deemed essential and remain open to the public as not everyone has access to internet or the ability to navigate a website to print off paperwork. I sure know my grandma would struggle with this. But I appreciate Julie at the Great Falls onffice doing what she could to help me.

    Completely incompetent. I had to send in my paperwork 3 times, each time it got sent back. I called each time to see what I did wrong and needed to change and each time it was different. Now they would like me to send my drivers licence in the mail. Not a copy, my actual drivers licence. In my opinion these people are LAZY and do not care about being proficient. I also do not understand why they are closed. They already have a thick piece of glass in between themselves and the customer. Everywhere else is open, why are they so special?

    Why are they still closed, the elderly don't know how to do things online, federal employees work for us, total incompetence.
