What does a my Social Security account let me do?

If you do not receive benefits, you can:

   Request a replacement Social Security card if you meet certain requirements;

   Get your Social Security Statement, to review:

   Estimates of your future retirement, disability, and survivors benefits;

   Your earnings once a year to verify the amounts that we posted are correct; and

    The estimated Social Security and Medicare taxes you’ve paid.

    Get a benefit verification letter stating that:

    You never received Social Security benefits, Supplemental Security Income (SSI) or Medicare; or

     You received benefits in the past, but do not currently receive them. (The letter will include the date your benefits stopped and how much you received that year.); or

     You applied for benefits but haven’t received an answer yet.

If you receive benefits or have Medicare, you can:

    Request a replacement Social Security card if you meet certain requirements;
    Get your benefit verification letter;
    Check your benefit and payment information and your earnings record;
    Change your address and phone number;
    Start or change direct deposit of your benefit payment;
    Get a replacement Medicare card; and
    Get a replacement SSA-1099 or SSA-1042S for tax season.
