Online Benefits Calculator

The Online Calculator below allows you to estimate your Social Security benefit. To use the Online Calculator, you need to enter all of your earnings from your online Social Security Statement.

Please Note:

  • The Online Calculator is updated periodically* with new benefit increases and other benefit amounts. Therefore, it is likely that your benefit estimates in the future will differ from those calculated today.
  • The Online Calculator works on PCs and Macs with Javascript enabled.
  • Some browsers may not allow you to print the table below.

*The most recent calculator update was in February, 2020.

The Online Calculator temporarily stores information on your local computer while your browser is open. To protect your personal information, you should close your browser after you have finished your estimate.

To protect your records from unauthorized users, the Online Calculator is not linked to your record of earnings in our database. Instead, we ask you to insert your earnings in the calculator. Keep in mind that it’s easier and faster to get your estimate by creating a my Social Security account, and using our Retirement Calculator that links your earnings record directly from our database.

Note: If your birthday is on January 1st, we figure your benefit as if your birthday was in the previous year.

If you qualify for benefits as a Survivor, your full retirement age for survivors benefits may be different.


Enter your date of birth as month, day, and year, separated by slashes. (Example: If you were born on May 7, 1950, enter 5/7/1950.)

Note: This calculator will accept a stop-work age up to 85. If the age you enter is less than 62, we estimate your benefit at age 62. If the age you enter is at least 62, we use that age when we estimate your benefit.

Your estimated benefit is shown in today's dollars, unless you choose to have it shown in future (inflated) dollars.
