3. Estimate Your Social Security Benefits
Yes, you can estimate your Social Security benefits from the comfort of your own home. In fact, we think that’s a great (and fair) idea! Because, if we take into consideration how much you paid into Social Security during employment years, it’s your right to know even the last digit after the comma.
You can estimate your Social Security benefits online using your MySocialSecurity account. However, as a general rule, bear in mind that it is a good idea to claim your Social Security benefits at full retirement age, meaning 66 or 67, depending on what year you were born.
