I want my $60 back. They won't give it to me. They said it could be another 20 weeks until you'll receive it your birth certificate. FRAUD! Contacting the Better Business Bureau, for answers. I have never come across such an unethical place. Do Not use them. Go to your local town, where you were born. Pay $10. You're done!!! And with no headache!

I needed my birth certificate so I can get the Real ID. I got there as soon as they opened (highly recommended), got a ticket, filled out the application, and soon as I was done my number was called. I showed them my current ID and paid $20. Just 5 minutes later, my birth certificate was ready.

Ok, I was headed to my nearest SS office when I noted that this location had a 5 star Yelp rating…read moreand I was like:"huh?". Well, let me tell you that rating is spot ON! I arrived on a Thur morning 30 min prior to opening and the most wonderful security person was already outside making sure folks lined up appropriately, but also informing folks what could NOT get done at this location (no new applications for a SS card), as well as the things that could be done on line so folks didn't waste time in line unnecessarily! And it got better from there: doors opened on time, check-in orderly, plenty signage explaining processes, the same officer even came inside and explained where to find the stations and the bathrooms! Then when I was called, the representative not only addressed my issue, but took time to explain other aspects of SS that were available to me! I have been to a number of SS offices in the Philly area and this was BY FAR the best experience. Did I mention I was out within 35 min? Only issue: street parking is limited, but office is assessable by SEPTA. This is my go-to office from now on! Make it yours

The interview went well and the officer was friendly. The second time I went in for my oath ceremony. It was busier this time. Every employee that I encountered was friendly, helpful and patient. I did not see anyone that was rude to candidates or applicants. In fact, I felt their excitement for us becoming US citizens which I thought was so sweet of them. What also stood out to me was that the employees were very friendly, warm and respectful to each other, which is more than you can say of some work environments in corporate America. There is a parking lot across from the building. I believe it's free to use if you have an appointment, but we parked on the street a block away.

She asked me if I was blind and that that was the employee parking lot. I told her that I was dropping someone off and that there was no need to be rude and disrespectful to me because I was not treating her that way. She then proceeded to tell me that she was from Russia (which I have no idea how that was relevant) and that I had no right speaking back to her. She said that she was going to lunch and that when she came back I'm going to see how she is going to sabotage my friends claim. She then got in her white Lexus and drove off. Needless to say we filed a complaint against her. Totally disgusted in this place.
