Social Security Discusses Mobile Options

If you're on the road or away from a standard personal computer, Social Security says you can still conduct your business from where ever you may be as long as you have an internet connection.

 

As we begin to travel again and move around more, Social Security is reminding the public of the things you can do if you're not at your personal computer. Jack Myers with Social Security says whether you are getting ready to travel and want to be prepared, or you just want to take a proactive approach to retirement planning, a good first step will be creating your mySocialSecurity account. Start by visiting www.ssa.gov/myaccount. 

 

 

There are a number of things you can do, some whether you are receiving benefits or not, others once you begin receiving benefits. Myers points to one example of a service that is available through your account is the ability to apply for a replacement Social Security card if you have a DL or ID from Illinois or many other states. Additionally, if you are receiving benefits you can get income verification letters, update your address and direct deposit, and more.

 

 

In addition to taking advantage of some of the services and information available to you within your account. If you create the account now, you will also be taking a step towards one-day filing that retirement or another type of online application with Social Security.
