Office of the Chief Actuary's Estimates of Proposals to Change the Social Security Program or the SSI Program
Click to subscribe
Trustees Reports since 2012
have indicated that Social Security's Old-Age, Survivors, and
Disability Insurance (OASDI) Trust Fund reserves would become depleted between 2033 and 2035 under the intermediate set of assumptions provided in each report.
If no legislative change is enacted, scheduled tax revenues will be sufficient to pay only about three-fourths of the scheduled benefits after trust fund reserve depletion. Policymakers have developed proposals and options that have financial effects on the OASDI Trust Funds. Many of these proposals and options have the intent of addressing the long-range solvency problem.
The Office of the Chief Actuary also develops estimates of proposals to change the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program.
We have prepared letters or memoranda for many of these proposals and options.
Each letter or memorandum provides an actuarial analysis showing the estimated
effect on the financial status of the Social Security program and/or the SSI program.
These documents are provided in Portable Document Format (PDF),
which we recommend for printing (requires
Adobe Acrobat Reader).
Some of the documents are also available in HTML format.
The documents are listed below in chronological order, most recent first.
