Intro to Social Security
IRS Number:
This course is aimed at the individual that doesn’t need or want the detailed planning and calculations of a full-blown 8 hour course, but who wants an understanding of the main concepts and benefits of Social Security and Medicare. Taught by TaxSpeaker’s own Social Security experts, we even have our own employees and area residents take this class as one of the most hands-on, everyday life practical courses we teach.
Course Objectives
This course introduces the student to the Social Security system, explains what it takes to qualify, taxability, types of benefits (worker, spouse, dependent, widow) and walks through when and how to sign up for benefits. It is an incredibly valuable “overview” of the system, as well as an introduction to deeper study of Social Security and Medicare.
