| Benefit Calculators | Estimate your Social Security Benefits The Social Security Administration's new benefits calculator is a fast and easy online estimator of Social Security Benefits.People planning for retirement now have a tool that will estimaste Social Security Benefits with the input of just a few pieces of personal information. Currently, workers get an annual benefit estimate mailed to them. It is based on prior earnings but assumes people's salary stays the same until retirement age. The online calculator supplements the annual mailing but won't replace it. The online calculator permits future retirees to create a more accurate estimate of benefits since people can factor in a higher estimate of their future earnings. People can also factor in different alternatives for retirement ages. The calculator replaces a laborious online calculator that required people to type in their earnings history, which can involve guesswork for people who don't keep detailed and foluminous records. The new version uses the Social Security database to provide accurate earnings information, though the calculator requests the most recent year of earnings since there is a lag in getting salary information into the Social Security database. The closer you are to the retirement age, the more accurate this estimate is going to be. The Administration has taken steps to make sure people's personal information won't be divulged. The agency has also worked up a new security system for when it accepts online applications, though many foreign-born recipients will still be required to furnish proof of retirement age at field offices. |
