Social Security to Offer E-Mail Updates
WASHINGTON — Social Security recipients can keep up with the latest changes in benefits and rules through a new electronic newsletter the government will offer starting March 1.
E-mail subscribers will be able to customize information they receive in the free monthly updates from the Social Security Administration.
A retiree can get news about benefits, including announcements of Social Security’s annual cost-of-living raises, for example.
The newsletter also will include topics of interest to employers, such as pilot projects to test easier ways of reporting of workers’ wages to Social Security.
“We hope that beneficiaries, workers, employers and professionals who handle Social Security issues will all find Social Security e-news useful and timely,” said Social Security’s deputy commissioner, William Halter.
Those interested can subscribe at the Social Security Administration’s Internet site starting Tuesday. An e-mail address is all that is required.
The Internet address is https://www.ssa.gov/enews.
