Yes hello I filled out all of the information in the Retirement Estimator and it took a long time. When I came back from answering the door, all of the information was gone. What happened?
================
Oh that's too bad. Were you gone for a long time?
Yes I guess I was.
For reasons of security, there are time limits for viewing each page.
================
How much will I get if I apply for retirement benefits?
I'm sorry but we can't provide your actual benefit amount until you go through the process of applying for benefits.
================
If I re-enter all of my data in the Estimator will the page crash again?
It shouldn't, usually you will receive a warning after 25 minutes of being idle then you should be able to extend your time on the page.
Is there an ultimate time limit?
Yes, after the third warning on a page, you must move to another page.
================
Can anyone use the Retirement Estimator?
You can use the Retirement Estimator if you have enough Social Security credits at this time to qualify for benefits.
And there is no age restriction?
If you are age 62 or older and receiving benefits on another Social Security record, you may not use it.
================
So I'll be able to have an accurate estimate of my benefits?
Although the Retirement Estimator gives estimates based on your actual Social Security earnings, it remains just an estimate due to various circumstances such as fluctuations in future wage earnings.
