Have you been to your local Social Security office lately? You may want to avoid going by creating a personal my Social Security online account even if you haven’t retired yet! Use this account to review your earnings history, access your latest Social Security statement and get more information about your potential future benefits. Naturally the Social Security Administration has very high security and privacy standards so to open an online account you will need to answer multiple questions regarding your past addresses, financial accounts, and loans to confirm your identity. Please note that you will have to go into your local Social Security Office to create one of these accounts if you have a security freeze, fraud alert, or both on your credit report – sorry!
