NARSSA Expands to Nearly 2,000 Locations for Americans Needing Assistance From Certified Social Security Experts
RSSAs Are Certified Experts and Available Nationwide to Help Fill the Gap in Services Caused by the Closure of Social Security Administration Field Offices
NEW YORK CITY, NY, UNITED STATES, December 10, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The National Association of Registered Social Security Analysts (NARSSA®), the nation’s leading professional organization that educates and certifies an elite group of Social Security advisors, has announced that it has expanded its nationwide network of nearly 2,000 field locations where Americans can seek both in-person and remote access to certified Social Security experts.
Known as Registered Social Security Analysts (RSSA®), these experts provide additional value added services beyond what employees at the Social Security Administration offer, including the ability to file applications for Social Security benefits, troubleshoot unique cases involving benefit applications, as well as the filing and management of appeals cases when particular benefit applications are denied by the Social Security Administration (SSA).
RSSAs also utilize Roadmap, the groundbreaking Social Security benefit planning software from NARSSA. Roadmap allows RSSAs to provide their clients with the ability to precisely calculate and optimize their clients’ Social Security benefits by using the thousands of SSA rules and economic calculations to arrive at the optimal time to file for benefits.
“RSSAs are quickly becoming the preferred choice by Americans who need access to a live Social Security expert,” said Ted Rosedale, Chief Operations Officer of the National Association of Registered Social Security Analysts. “While the Social Security Administration is significantly reducing its physical locations and employee headcount at a time of record-breaking need of both its benefits and services, NARSSA has been able to provide Americans an alternative service with nearly 2,000 RSSA field locations.”
To meet the overwhelming need of the public regarding their Social Security benefits, NARSSA is optimized operationally to compliment services offered by the Social Security Administration (SSA), including additional layers of support and specialization beyond what the SSA offers. Itemized below are a list of services that RSSAs throughout the country can immediately render to Americans as it relates to, in some cases, a reduction in services by the SSA.
