*****Now that WEP/GPO have been repealed you can start the process of submitting a claim. This is a very complicated program, but here is a quick message from Social Security Administration (SSA).  SSA will take an application by telephone for people who did not previously apply for retirement benefits because of WEP or spouse’s or surviving spouse’s benefits because of GPO.  If you meet these conditions, call 1-800-772-1213 Monday through Friday, from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. ET.  When the system asks, “How can I help you today?”, say “Fairness Act.”  Then, you’ll be asked a few questions. Your answers will help SSA connect you to a WEP-GPO trained representative to take your claim.  For more details visit SSA.*****   NARFE overview video.  To join NARFE click here.
