The Social Security Administration provides electronic records request online at eme.ssa.gov. This service is free of charge but it might take a very long time to get your request. Currently SSA Claims are taking anywhere between 6 to 12 months to process. This is not to say that a records request will take that long but it gives you an idea of what you’re dealing with. When making your request please remember that anyone who knowingly and willfully makes any representation to falsely obtain information from Social Security records to be used in a corrupt way could be imprisoned and or heavily fined. Social Security Administration records can only be used by the holder of the true identity for reasonable purposes. For example requesting your SSA records to be used in a claim you filed with the Department Of Veterans Affairs this is a perfectly legit reason to make a records request.
If you need help or assistance with the Electronic Records Express please contact SSA at 1-866-691-3061. The wait time to speak with a customer service rep will average between 15 to 30 minutes.
