Our office recently helped a constituent redeposit two Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payments to the proper account after two payments of $1,886 and $23,369 had been made to the incorrect institution.

This constituent filed his taxes on March 11, 2024, with a refund amount of $77,000. By May, he still had not received his refund from the IRS so he reached out to our office for help.
Our office recently helped a constituent recover funds owed to him from the Social Security Administration (SSA).

Our office recently helped a young woman from Brooklyn reclaim $21,682 in student loan forgiveness after her check was stolen and fraudulently cashed.

Last Friday, our office received a call regarding a U.S. citizen being detained in Lebanon. The constituent has dual citizenship and had traveled to Israel on a holy trip. Upon attempting to leave Lebanon to return home, authorities confiscated all her paperwork and cell phone.
