hi,
The trick is sending your info with a signature request.
I tried that last month and had zero problems for a change.

> Warren County in Warrenton.
> The news is very encouraging. About 3/4 of all Blind Pension cases have
> been transferred to Warrenton. The major notable exception is the Kansas
> City area due to technical issues. However, Warren county is not yet up
> and fully running so all contacts until further notice should go through
> your local county office or the toll free phone number.
> If you call the phone center now with a specific question about your case
> they are now supposed to try and connect you with a first responder to
> immediately handle your problem If they cannot reach a first responder
> than they will take your contact information.
> Shortly annual reviews will be sent out 60 days before they are due in
> hopes in solving reader issues. It will hopefully be possible in the near
> future to fill out your review form online and print it yourself and mail
> it in. Eventually the hope is that you can complete and submit it online
> and even scan in your documentation like bank statements.
> By late Spring there should be a Robo Call system in place to notify you
> when an Annual Review form or Adverse Action Notice is being mailed.
> The only thing that we may not be successful in for the short term is
> having the review form have a clear title specifying it is for the blind
> programs.
> This was a follow-up to our meeting on November 15,2013 and demonstrates
> both the effectiveness of our advocacy and the ability of FSD to take
> action when they hear a concern.
