Hey, can you tell me something about my retirement benefits planner?
================
Of course. Did you apply for retirement benefits or Medicare?
No, I haven't applied yet.
================
Do you want to know about the application process?
No, sorry. That's not what I wanted to know.
================
Would you like to learn about other retirement planning websites then?
No, I don't want to.
Let ME ask the questions, please. I think this way it's going to be easier. I recently came across the employee benefit research institute, is that a website you'd recommend?
Absolutely. The Employee Benefit Research Institute is an officially listed resource.
================
So it's reliable, I see. One more question regarding the application. Do the benefits start right when I apply or how does it work?
It depends, you may be able to start your benefits in the month you apply. You should apply for benefits no more than four months before the date you want your benefits to start. Benefits are paid the month after they are due.
