New Statement Fact Sheet for People with Limited Earnings

| April 23, 2022

If you have a personal my Social Security account, you can view your Social Security Statement online to learn about your future benefits and recent earnings history.

Included with the Statement are fact sheets that provide useful information based on your age group and earnings situation. Last month, we released a new fact sheet specifically for people with limited earnings.

The new fact sheet covers how you and your family members may qualify for benefits, including:

  • Supplemental Security Income.
  • Social Security retirement benefits.
  • Children’s benefits.
  • Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program.
  • Help with health care costs – including Medicare, Medicare Savings Programs, Extra Help with Medicare prescription drug costs, and Medicaid.

We’re committed to helping you learn about all your benefit options. Our Benefits Eligibility Screening Tool at ssabest.benefits.gov is a convenient way to find potential benefits that best fit your situation.

To learn more, visit our Social Security Statement webpage at http://www.ssa.gov/myaccount/statement.html.

Please consider sharing this article with your friends and family that may benefit from it – and post it on social media.
