How Can I Determine The Amount Of My Future Benefit?

Hi! I filed for a spousal benefit only two years ago, and am currently receiving it. My plan is to file for my own social security benefit when I turn 70, in two years. How/where can I now determine the amount of my benefit when I file for my own benefit? The social security website doesn't offer that information online. This information would help us for future planning purposes.
Thanks!

Hi,

We believe that the best and most reliable way to find out what your Social Security retirement benefit would be is to use the benefit calculator in our software (https://maximizemysocialsecurity.com/purchase). Other websites also have benefit calculators, but I can't vouch for their accuracy.

Best, Jerry
