How is my benefit amount calculated?

Your benefit is directly related to what you have paid into the system. So when they calculate it, the administration uses a formula that is based upon your past wages and, again, your withholdings. So your benefit could be high or it could be low. It could be as high as $2,500 a month. So that’s why it’s so important that if you are really disabled, you pursue these benefits.
