Does Social Security Have Investigators?
Unlike private insurance companies the SSA does not generally conduct surveillance investigations, but that doesn't mean that they can't or never will. Once you file a disability claim, the SSA looks for proof of your disability.

Does Social Security do investigations?

Whether you like it or not, the SSA conducts investigations into people who are seeking disability benefits.

How do you know if Social Security is investigating you?

THE SSA INVESTIGATION USUALLY STARTS WITH THE INTERNET

SSA opens their investigation by looking for you on the internet. They will look up your name, phone number, and address. They usually already have this information, but they are checking it to make sure you are living at the address that you say you are living at.
