Redesigned Social Security Statement Being Rolled Out Slowly
Back in May of this year, Social Security started a “soft launch” of a new and improved Social Security statement. The new statement is available now only on a very limited basis to selected near-retirees, but early reports are that the improvement is significant because it shows future benefits for each claim age from 62 to 70.

Showing benefits available through the entire 8 year range will be very helpful for planning purposes, both for individuals contemplating retirement and those who advise them.
