Start Planning Today with my Social Security

For more than 80 years, Social Security has helped secure today and tomorrow with information, tools and
resources to meet our customers’ changing needs and lifestyles.
Your retirement may seem far off, but the fact is there’s no better time than now to lay the foundation for a
bright future. Social Security is just one piece of the puzzle. Saving is another. And, if you become disabled and
unable to work, you may be eligible for disability benefits.
Open your free my Social Security account today and access your personal, online account information.
• It takes just minutes.
• Verify your earnings history (benefits are based on your earnings).
• See your benefit estimates and more.
• It’s quick and easy.
• Advanced security features protect your privacy.
Social Security benefits are not intended to be your only income source when you retire. On average, Social
Security will replace about 40 percent of your annual pre-retirement earnings. You will need other savings,
investments, pensions, or retirement accounts to live comfortably. Use your online Social Security Statement,
available in your personal account, as a tool for planning your financial future.
