Help with a Federal Agency
With the assistance of my staff, I am here to help you with the difficulties you are experiencing with federal agencies such as the Social Security Administration, Internal Revenue Service, Veterans Administration and all other federal agencies. Congressional District “Casework” or Constituent Services is a valuable function of my office by making government more accessible and responsive. However, congressional offices do not have the authority to overturn nor influence the outcome of a decision made by a federal agency, nor intervene in a deportation case.
Steps in Filing a Casework Request for Help
You can request a case be opened on your behalf by following these four steps:
1. Confirm that you are a resident of Indiana's 4th Congressional District at Write Your Representative.
2. My Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) page may be able to help you find an answer to your problem.
3. If you have determined that your problem is a federal matter, complete a Privacy Release Consent Form. Thoroughly complete the form, including the blank lines that ask you to describe your problem (dates, agency name and what you want Congressman Buyer to do to resolve your problem.)
4. Sign and date the form and mail or fax it to any of my three District Offices, along with any supporting documents that you feel may help resolve your case.
