We’d like to remind you to review your Social Security Statement online. The Statement has important Social Security information and, if applicable, estimates of your future benefits.
If you are working, we encourage you to check your Statement yearly to make sure your earnings record is correct. The Statement also will help in planning your financial future.
On June 10, 2017, we added a second method to verify your identity each time you sign in to your account. This is in addition to your username and password. Using two ways to identify you when you log on will help better protect your account from unauthorized use and fraud. Now, when you sign in to your account you will complete two steps:
Step 1: Enter your username and password.
Step 2: Enter the security code we send you by text message or email, depending on your choice (your cell phone provider’s text message and data rates may apply).
With instant access to your Social Security Statement at any time, you will no longer receive one periodically in the mail, saving money and the environment. Thank you for Going Green!
I regularly check my and my wife's statements but this is the first time I've ever received an email form SSA reminding me to do it.
I caught a glitch a few years ago where the payroll company screwed up and a bunch of income/payroll tax money wasn't reported to the Social Security administration. My W-2 was correct. Turns out that about 30 people had the issue and I was the only one who routinely checked the web portal. I'm trying to get as close as possible to 35 maxed-out Social Security years to get the largest possible Social Security check. It took 2 or 3 rounds of back & forth to get it corrected.
I got the same email. I believe it is sent relatively close to your birthday. I do check it every year to make sure the earnings are correct.
