Death benefits

[Neighbor trouble]

Jurisdiction

Missouri

A friend of mine is trying to receive death benefits from her father. She has been denied by social security because they said they needed proof that he was her dad. They were supposed to call her mother to confirm but they never followed through. She doesnt know who to call or what to say.
What can she do?

This is hardly a legal question.

Let her go to a social security office in person and deal with her own problem.

Ok, I'll suggest that. She doesnt have vehicle but she'll have to find a ride. I was just asking bc she asked me and I wasn't sure.

Well certain things cannot easily be dealt with by phone. She needs to go in person and find out exactly what they require her to do.
