A Pillar of Support, Safeguarding the Financial Future of Retirees
For over 88 years, Social Security has stood as a pillar of support, safeguarding the financial future of retirees, individuals with disabilities, dependents, and families impacted by the loss of a wage earner.
In the present year, Social Security will oversee the distribution of over $1.3 trillion in benefits and payments, catering to more than 70 million beneficiaries. Our reach extends to covering 181 million workers along with their families.
Beyond the disbursement of benefits, the issuance of countless Social Security numbers annually to the meticulous maintenance of wage records for workers, and much more. The scale of our operations is indeed immense, and we take immense pride in our daily service to the American populace.
As of December 2022, The Social Security Administration introduced an upgraded SSA.gov platform designed to simplify your access to vital information. With over 180 million annual visitors to our website, we remain dedicated to providing assistance in person or through digital channels, guiding you to comprehend your potential eligibility and guiding you through the application journey.
Moreover, we have been diligent in ensuring the accessibility of our programs, particularly the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program, for those who are most in need. In March 2022, they unveiled an online tool that enables you or your representative to request an appointment for SSI filing, ensuring the preservation of your filing date. A dedicated staff member will then arrange a comprehensive interview.
For your convenience, they extend the option of conducting transactions with us through a personal my Social Security account. This secure and complimentary account empowers you to apply for benefits and Medicare, monitor your application status, obtain benefit verification, and even request a replacement Social Security card. Even if you are not a current beneficiary, the account provides access to personalized retirement benefit estimations, your Social Security Statement, and immediate confirmation of your non-beneficiary status.
The Social Security Administration is committed to revolve around the protection and prosperity of the individuals we serve. Their steadfast goal is to ensure that each eligible recipient receives their benefits accurately and promptly, thereby helping you secure your present and future.
