About this document

US Social Security documents are issued by the Social Security Administration (SSA), the federal agency that manages retirement, disability and survivors benefits in the United States. They include the Social Security Statement (earnings record and benefit estimates), benefit verification letters and annual cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) notices. They show the beneficiary's identity, the type of benefit, the amounts and the periods concerned.
