How Do I Get a Copy of a Social Security Earnings Report?
- 1). Go to the Social Security Administration's "Request a Social Security Statement" website. Scroll to the bottom of the page and click on the gray button at the bottom right with the same title as the webpage.
- 2). Read form instructions. Select whether your statement should be sent in English or Spanish. These are the only language options available. Enter your social security number without using dashes and type your name as instructed by line.
- 3). Select date of birth and place of birth from available drop down lists and select the gender radio button. Next, supply your mother's maiden name, your telephone number and your mailing address. You may opt to enter approximations of the current and previous year's reported earnings as well. If able, enter estimated future years' earnings and projected retirement age for a more accurate statement.
- 4). Read the SSA Privacy Act and select "Continue." A confirmatory thank you note will appear on the next screen if information entered matches SSA records. Your requested statement will be sent by mail to the address given on the application within two to four weeks of the request.
- 5). Click the gray "Done" button to exit.
