How do i check the status of my social security benefits

You can get your Social Security Statement (Statement) online by using your personal my Social Security account. If you don’t yet have an account, you can easily create one. Your online Statement gives you secure and convenient access to estimates for retirement, disability, and survivors benefits you and your family may be eligible for. It also shows your earnings history.

To set up or use your account to get your Statement, go to Sign In Or Create An Account.

We also mail paper Statements to workers age 60 and older 3 months before their birthday. This is if they don’t receive Social Security benefits and don’t yet have a personal my Social Security account. Workers who don’t want to wait for their scheduled mailing can request their Statement by following these instructions. The Statement will arrive by mail in four to six weeks.
