“In this article, a 78 year old person who has been collecting Social Security for about 6 years asks Rusty why his contributions to SS haven’t resulted in his monthly payment increasing, as he was told they would. Rusty’s response clarified that SSA does, indeed, increase benefits when appropriate due to recent earnings, and explained why that may not have occurred in this person’s individual case. Rusty also explains in this audio how to verify that the person’s current SS amount is correct.”
