Social Security

The Social Security Administration is the primary source of information about Social Security, Supplemental Security Income (SSI), and Medicare enrollment.

The Personal Earnings and Benefit Estimate Statement provides workers with a year by year record of their earnings and an estimate of their Social Security benefits. For information, visit www.ssa.gov or call 1-800-772-1213.

In 2007, beneficiaries under 65 may earn up to $12,960 without affecting their Social Security benefits. There is no earnings limit for workers 65 or older. Workers reaching full retirement may earn up to $34,440 in the months before full retirement and still receive all their benefits for that year.
