Plan for Your Future During National My Social Security Week

Injuries and illnesses often strike when you least expect it. That’s why it’s so important to have a plan in place for how you will care for yourself and your family when the unexpected happens.

Applying for Social Security Disability benefits may be a part of your plan, and the Social Security Administration (SSA) is focusing on helping Americans like you create a strategy for managing their retirement and disability finances. Agency officials say they hope to achieve this goal by encouraging more people to use the My Social Security network during National My Social Security Week, which takes place from Sunday, Aug. 17 to Saturday, Aug. 23.

My Social Security currently has more than 13.2 million users and can be used to keep track of the benefits you’ve earned and estimate the benefits you will earn in the future. For those who have already received a disability approval, the system can also be used to get a letter of verification for your benefits.

The Social Security Disability Lawyers with Fleschner, Stark, Tanoos & Newlin are aware of how important planning for the future can be and would encourage all Americans to educate themselves about the benefits they may be entitled to from the federal government.
