I am always happy to help constituents who need assistance with a disability claim. However, there are limits to what I can do. At my request, Social Security officials will "flag" a particular case and keep me updated throughout the process. This communication can really help a person understand what is happening with their case, so they can make other decisions regarding their life and family. However, I cannot act as the "representative" on a person's disability paperwork. You may want an attorney to help you with this. My actions will not affect the work done by the person you select as your representative. I also do not have the authority to overturn any decision made by the Social Security Administration. After you file the paperwork for disability benefits with your local Social Security office, I would be pleased to follow the progress of your claim. If you would like my help, please print out this Authorization Form and fax or mail it to my Harrison office. Questions? Call my office.
If you want to send something on this issue to my office, address it to: Congressman Tom Latham, 2447 Rayburn HOB, Washington, DC 20515. If you would like to call my office toll free, that number is 866-428-5642. If you are in Washington, D.C. and want to call, try 202-225-5476. And if you would like to fax us something, please fax it to 202-225-3301.
