Q & A
Is there an online method for getting my Social Security retirement estimate?
Answer: Yes. You can use our Retirement Estimator. To use it, go to our website at www.socialsecurity.gov/ <code_dp displayname=”code_dp” name=”code_dp”>estimator. You must enter certain identifying information about yourself, including your first name, last name, date of birth, Social Security number, place of birth and mother’s maiden name. If the information that you provide does not match Social Security’s records, then you will receive an on-screen message that you cannot use the Retirement Estimator.
If the personal information that you provide does match our records, then you can use the Retirement Estimator to enter other information, such as your expected retirement age and future wages. This information then will be combined with the information that Social Security has on record about your past earnings to provide a quick and reliable online benefit estimate. You will see only your final retirement estimates. The Retirement Estimator does not show the earnings record information used to calculate your final benefit estimate.
