The Social Security Administration restaurant provides quick appointments with friendly staff. Some security measures can be strict, but overall the officers are nice and polite. Visiting the office in person without an appointment can be a good alternative, especially if phone appointments are not successful. It's important to bring all necessary documents to avoid multiple visits, as document issues can delay the process. The office is located in a tucked-away alley, and items are inspected TSA-style before entering. The entrance is near street parking, and using the Passport Parking app makes refilling the parking meter easier. The office stops accepting walk-ins and appointments at 4pm, but as long as you arrive before then, you can be seen. Meeting staff like Ms. Wu, who greets visitors with warmth and kindness, can make the experience better. Overall, going in person and being prepared can lead to a successful approval process. Trusting USPS for document delivery may not be the best option, so visiting the office is recommended.
