I had my benefits suspended about three years ago. I just turned 70 last week. I understand my benefits should start next month automatically. However, I have not received any notification or see any information in my account "online" about payment next month or the amount of benefits..
Am I not to receive any notification or it should not be showing "online" in my account?
Can you please provide tell me if this is normal? What should I expect?
Thanks.!

Hi,

I'm not sure what if any notice you can expect to receive from Social Security regarding reinstatement of your benefits at age 70. All I can tell you for sure is that Social Security's operations manual states that they use automated systems to reinstatement voluntarily suspended benefits when the person turns age 70 (https://secure.ssa.gov/apps10/poms.nsf/lnx/0202409130). If you turned 70 in January and your benefits have been in voluntary suspense, your benefit payments should resume automatically in February (i.e. your benefit payment for January).

Best, Jerry
