New York Social Security

Estimate a U.S. Social Security retirement benefit from earnings history in New York.

About New York Social Security

A simplified Social Security estimate: earnings are averaged over your 35 highest years (AIME), then the bend points apply 90%/32%/15% to compute the Primary Insurance Amount, with early/late starting adjustments. The SSA's official tool is more precise.

Formula

PIA

PIA = 90%×first bend + 32%×second + 15%×rest
