What is Casework?
One of my most important duties as your representative in Congress is to assist you when dealing with federal agencies – this assistance is referred to as casework. My casework staff and I are ready to help you cut through “red tape” and secure the services and benefits paid for by our tax dollars.
 |
Constituents most commonly approach my staff for casework when they do not receive a timely response from a federal agency, when they wish to appeal a decision, or if they have lost important documents. |
Examples of federal agencies that we work with include the Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS), the Social Security Administration (SSA), and the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), among others.
