Certainly bad to issue the cards during tax filing season and add to an already confused government.
If you think the government is confused, you should see my understanding of any of this stuff. I read the whole page of instructions and have no idea what I read. I have never been able to read and understand anything the government puts out. I have a faded S.S. card from the ancient days which I have used as well for medicare. Somebody tell me just one thing. Do I have to show up at the S.S. office and refile for S.S. and Medicare? If I’m good with what I have now. I will hold on to whatever cards they send and do nothing.
