Ned's not dead. Now he has to prove it to Social Security

Ned Johnson is very much alive... But not according to the Social Security Administration.

So, the 82-year-old from Seattle and his wife Pam have to prove it.

It hasn’t been easy. The agency is going through staffing chaos.

Ned and Pam joined Seattle Now to tell their story.
