After spending most of your life working to support your family, retirement can be a dream come true. You’ll have the time to visit your family, enjoy your hobbies, and see your grandchildren. However, if the government has made a mistake calculating your contributions or payments, you may not ever be able to realize your retirement dreams. Safeguard your rights.
Social security calculates your benefits based on the earnings averaged over your lifetime. Your earnings are adjusted for wage increases, and then applied to the 35 years you earned the most money using a complex formula.
