my Social Security
"my Social Security" permits you look at your Social Security data and make changes.
In mid June 2013, the Social Security Administration (SSA) rolled out the “my Social Security” helpdesk. Once you have created a user name and password, you will have access to your information at Social Security and can change email address and mailing address, as well as direct deposit instructions. Your password will expire on January 1, 2014, for security reasons, but it is easy to change the password at any time.
The My Home section tells you what you are receiving, how much your benefit is, and when your next check will be deposited.
The Help Center page has useful Frequently Asked Questions, where you can learn how to replace your Social Security Card, make name changes, or even apply for SSI. There is a “Contact Us” function, if you have questions. The section on Retirement explains such things as what happens to your Social Security if you are working while receiving benefits and discusses survivor or spousal benefits. The Disability section describes how to apply for disability payments and discusses working while disabled, if you need that information.
