FAQs

Will I be required to give you my social security number?

Generally, no. We will only need your Social Security number if your situation is exceptionally unique and we need to gather more information in order to assist you further. In these cases, you have the right to refuse to provide your Social Security number at any time.

Can’t I just ask the Social Security Administration for free what I should do?

No. By law, they are not allowed to provide you with specific recommendations based on your personal and unique circumstances. It is critical that your filing for Social Security benefits is coordinated with the numerous personal and financial variables that need to be considered in making your decision.

You can obtain a great deal of general information from the Social Security Administration; they are a wonderful resource and they perform an important service administering Social Security on behalf of the American people. What they cannot provide is detailed and accurate advice–advice that is geared towards your specific circumstances and objectives to maximize your Social Security benefits.

I already work with a financial advisor; why should I seek advice from you in addition or instead?

The bottom line is that Social Security is complex. The truth is that most financial advisors are not properly trained in the nuances and complicated rules-over 2,700 of them-that are contained within Social Security’s Program Operations Manual System.
In general, it is a great idea to work with a financial advisor, however when it comes to Social Security it is important that you make sure that you are receiving the best advice possible.
