Address changes can take 30-60 days and in some cases longer. A person cannot become their own payee soley based on their or a family members requesting it. There is a,reason your brother was not his own payee. Your brother can ask his doctor for a,letter stating he can manage his finances. But it is no guarantee SSA,will agree. SSA,may or may not decide your brother is no longer disabled and stop his monthly benefits. Going to a different office will make no difference.
