Q & A
How do I check the status of my retirement application?
Answer: If you applied for benefits, you can check the status of your application online. Your application status shows the date we received your application and any requests for additional documents. It also shows the address of the office processing your application, and if a decision has been made on your application.
If you receive an error, it may be because you entered an incorrect Social Security number or confirmation number. You also will receive an error if you did not complete the application, or if we made a final decision on your application more than four months ago.
If anything prevents you from checking your application status online, call us at 800-772-1213 (TTY 800-325-0778) between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. Monday through Friday.
