Social Security

Social Security and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) are significant sources of income for retirees and people with disabilities. When applying for public or subsidized housing, applicants generally must provide proof of income as part of their application. For people who receive a monthly Social Security or SSI benefit, my Social Security, our secure, online service, is the fastest way to obtain a Benefit Verification or Proof of Income letter. With my Social Security people who receive benefits can easily view, print, or save an official letter that includes proof of their:

  • Benefit amount and type;
  • Medicare start date and withholding amount; and
  • Age.
