I got back on the phone to Social Security Bellevue this morning and was on-hold for about 20 minutes. I retraced my (verbal) steps of yesterday, and the woman on the phone confirmed that the delayed start of Part B into July 2022 seemed odd. From what she can tell, all the paperwork is in-place to justify a "special start" now rather than the open-enrollment start in July. The case is under review and she added a case note for the responsible individual. She was very reluctant to provide a case number or contact, so I am "in line" somewhere. When the review is complete, I will be issued a new card with new dates and be able to sign up when that happens. Until then, she said there is nothing for me to do - Part A is automatic and in-force, and any enrollment in the other Parts, including Advantage, are gated on the new date.
Sigh.
