I get these questions from 99% of my clients and for good reason. Social Security does not make it easy to calculate how much you will get. The calculations Social Security uses to determine exactly how much you will get are unduly complicated – without access to a great deal of raw data, it is almost impossible to make manual calculations. Your “mySocialSecurity” account (https://www.ssa.gov/myaccount/ is a good place to start but often those figures are not up to date. In this video, I hope to offer you some perspective – what do I generally see in terms of monthly benefit payments and lump sums in both SSDI and SSI claims. Your payment will depend on factors unique to you but I want you to have some idea about what is typical.
