I patiently waited until I was 70 to file for my SS benefits. Ran all the calculators to get an estimate based on my earnings and the number always came out to 3962 per month (PIA = 3001.60 * 1.32). Pretty simple. Checked my MySocialSecurity account yesterday and it shows my benefit to be 3692 per month (270 lower) starting next month. Called the SS main number and after looking at my account, they agreed it should be 3962 and not 3692. Do you suppose that somewhere in the chain of determining benefits someone manually types in numbers and transposed the 2 middle digits? And I find myself wondering what would have happened had I not known what to expect and just accepted what they were going to provide. I'll let you know how the dispute process goes.
