Burkmere
Confused about dryer sheets
I will turn 62 in Sept. and am taking early SS. I applied online about three weeks ago and today received an "Award Letter" specifying my monthly amount.
I actually retired fro my job last Oct. 1 and have had no FICA wage income since then. A couple of months after I retired I went online and did an estimate. I believe the printout said it assumed I'd keep working until I retired and received SS.
The monthly benefit the Award Letter I received today indicated i'd receive the same amount as the estimate indicated I'd receive when I ran the estimate 6 months ago.
Can I assume the Award Letter is correct or are they often revised? I'm thinking that the Award Letter also used the assumption that I'd be working at my former salary until I actually started to receive benefits at 62 which, as I mentioned, was not the case.
If the amount is different, hopefully, it will only be a small amount..maybe $50 a month or so...
Thanks for any info.
