[QUOTE]Social Security Administration has announced it will save money by not mailing out annual statements to U.S. workers 25 and older, beginning this month [APRIL, 2011]
......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Because the annual statements are typically sent out about three months before a worker's birthday, those born in July and later won't be receiving one this year.

Apologies if the info was already posted elsewhere in the forum.

That annual mailing was a bother; one has to make sure to find and shread that instead of throwing it in paper recycle just like all the other junkmail in the box. and besides, there is a promise of online access to the same stuff ...
[QUOTE]However, starting early in fiscal year 2012, which begins in October 2011, the government will resume mailing the annual statements to workers age 60 and older who are not yet receiving benefits.

Green says the SSA "is working on an online option" so that all workers can download their statements. No specific date for that option has been set.
