This number is used to determine your final Social Security retirement benefit. As this calculation is based on an average if you have a zero as one of the numbers, it will pull the average down. To increase your Social Security benefits make sure you have a full 35 years of work history. Use Delayed Retirement Credits. Want to increase your Social Security retirement income by 25% or more? Wait to apply for benefits until age 70 and you will accumulate delayed retirement credits. These credits apply because once you reach full retirement age (FRA) your benefits do not cap out. FRA is determined by your date of birth.
Each year the Social Security Administration sends a Social Security Statement that lets you know how much money you would be entitled to if you became disabled at the time the statement was prepared. This statement is the most accurate way to estimate your monthly disability benefit amount. If you do not have a copy of this statement, you can contact the Social Security Administration to request one. It will take three to four weeks from the date of your request to receive the statement in the mail. If you do not want to wait to receive your Social Security Statement, you can also use the SSA's online benfits calculator to determine how much money you might receive in monthly Social Security Disability benefits.
