To apply for services: Please download and print the A1 Payee Services application forms ONLY. Fill them out completely, scan and send them as an email attachment to mkelly009@nc.rr.com. We have stopped accepting faxes to reduce the waste and extra expense of ink and paper. Go green! If you have not been told by the SSA that you must have a payee service, or if you have not had one before, you must also print the physicians statement, and have your doctor fill it out. The original physicians statement must be mailed to the P. O. Box listed in the contact us section below. The SSA will not accept copies of the physicians statement. It must be what they call a 'wet signature,' and if the doctors office has an official office stamp, that is also helpful. If you are living in an adult care home, you may also need to fill out that form. Print the "When a payee manages your money" flyer for your personal use, and share the A1 Payee Services informational flyer with your friends, family, and associates.
**Please Note**
Mailing allowance checks to clients can take several days or longer, and sometimes the mail gets lost. This can sometime cause delays in clients getting his or her personal spending allowance checks. We can do EFT direct transfers to accounts if the client provides routing and account numbers, but there is also a 48 hour delay if the account is not a Self-Help account. We encourage our clients to open debit-card accounts with Self-Help Credit Union so the transfer of funds would be instant with no waiting or delay.
