What Is a Social Security Statement? And Why You Should Be Checking It
From the U.S. News & World Report website
The Social Security Administration no longer mails paper Social Security statements to most people under age 60. Younger workers who want to check their earnings history or taxes paid need to create a my Social Security account to obtain their statement online.
Here’s why you should view your Social Security benefit statement:
- Find out how much you will get when you retire.
- See what happens if you become disabled.
- Take note of how much your family will receive if you die.
- Check your earnings record.
- Verify your Social Security and Medicare contributions.
