The Social Security Administration (SSA) has published changes to social security rates, benefits etc. that take effect on January 1, 2022. Click here for the Social Security Administration’s  “Social Security Fact Sheet” as to the the updated changes.

It always good practice to create what is known as a “my Social Security” account with the SSA (click here).  Having an account allows you to check your social security statement, verify your earnings as reported, estimate your future benefits, change your address, and more.
