Some people who get Social Security or Supplemental Security Income Benefits require a statement of their benefit amount or other information to show to another agency to obtain services or other benefits. The Proof of Income Letter can be used for this purpose and can be obtained on the Internet at Request a Proof of Income Letter.

The letter will be mailed to the address Social Security has on your record. You can also call the Social Security Administration’s toll-free number, 1-800-772-1213, and one of the Social Security Administration’s representatives will be glad to mail one out to you. People who are deaf or hard of hearing may call the Social Security Administration’s "TTY" number, 1-800-325-0778, between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. on business days.

If you prefer, you can visit your local Social Security office to obtain the Proof of Income Letter. The address and directions to your local office can be found on the Internet.
