  1. Hello everyone, I too have been doing the mail in form #7162 dance. Mailed it out twice since July, 1 sent via registered mail, 1 sent standard mail. Received confirmation of delivery dated Oct. 4th., presumably from the registered mail one. However I still received the dreaded letter from the SSA, stating that my form had not yet been received, with the request to resubmit. I called every phone number that is possible, with zero results, never could get through to anybody. Literally hundreds of calls to the direct line, dozens more to the 1-800 line. So I moved to the fallback position, and called my former local SSA from Washington State. While that office was not able to actually do anything related to the form #7162, they were able to access my account and look at it's current configuration. It was confirmed that the form HAD been received AND had been entered into my electronic file. Furthermore, they were able to confirm that my benefits status was still active. So if you have a USA based phone or use Google Voice (via a sign up service that's free) you can call your former local SSA office and get at least some information. Hope this helps some of you out!!!!
