When are ssa 1099 forms mailed

The Social Security Administration (SSA) typically mails Form SSA-1099, also known as the Social Security Benefit Statement, to recipients in January of each year. The exact mailing date may vary, but it usually occurs between mid-January and early February.

The SSA sends Form SSA-1099 to individuals who received Social Security benefits, including:

1. Retirees who receive Social Security retirement benefits
2. Disabled workers who receive Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) benefits
3. Survivors who receive Social Security survivor benefits
4. Spouses and children who receive Social Security benefits based on a worker's record

The form shows the total amount of benefits paid to the individual during the previous calendar year. This information is used to report income on tax returns.

If you're expecting to receive a Form SSA-1099, you can check the status of your form online through the SSA's website or by contacting the SSA directly.
