Social
Security income
 |
Social
Security is based on a sliding scale depending on your income,
how long you work and at what age you retire. Social Security
benefits automatically increase each year based on the rise
in the Consumer Price Index. Including a spouse increases
your Social Security benefits up to, but not over, the maximum.
This calculator provides only an estimate of your benefits.
Your actual benefit may be higher or lower depending on your
work history and the complete compensation rules used by
Social Security.
