Definitions
Current age
Your current age.
Age at retirement
Age at which you plan to retire.
Annual income
Your total annual income. If you are married, this should not include your spouse's income. When we calculate your Social Security benefit, if you check the married box, the total is increased to include an additional 50% of your benefit for your spouse. If your spouse will be collecting their own benefit, do not check the "married" box. You will need to run the calculator separately for their income.
Expected salary increase
Annual percent increase you expect in your annual income.
Expected rate of inflation
This is what you expect for the average long-term inflation rate. A common measure of inflation in the U.S. is the Consumer Price Index (CPI). From 1925 through 2024 the CPI has a long-term average of 3.0% annually. Over the last 40 years the highest CPI recorded was 13.5% in 1980. For the 12 months ending October 31st 2024 the CPI for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) was 3.2% as reported by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Include spousal benefit?
Check this box if you are married and wish to include a spousal benefit in the calculation. Married couples with only one spouse who works have a higher maximum Social Security benefit than single wage earners.
Social Security income
Social Security is based on a sliding scale depending on your income, how long you work and at what age you retire. Social Security benefits automatically increase each year based on increases in the Consumer Price Index. Including a spouse increases your Social Security benefits by 1.5 times your individual estimated benefit. Please note that this calculator assumes that only one spouse works. Benefits could be different if your spouse worked and earned a benefit higher than one half of your benefit. If you are a married couple, and both spouses work, you may need to run the calculation twice – once for each spouse and their respective income. This calculator provides only an estimate of your benefits.
The calculations use the 2025 FICA income limit of $176,100 with an annual maximum Social Security benefit of $48,216 ($4,018 per month) for a single person and 1.5 times this amount for a married couple. To receive the maximum benefit would require earning the maximum FICA income for nearly your entire career. You would also need to begin receiving benefits at your full retirement age of 66 or 67 (depending on your birthdate). This calculator rounds the age you can receive full Social Security benefits to the next highest full year. If your birthdate is in 1955 through 1959 your actual full retirement age for Social Security is 66 plus two months for each year after 1954. Your actual benefit may be lower or higher depending on your work history and the complete compensation rules used by Social Security.
Disclosures
Rate and APR may vary based on several factors including, but not limited to, loan amount, state of property location, documentation type, occupancy, property type, loan to value and your credit score. Your final rate may be higher or lower than those quoted based on information relating to these factors, which may be determined after you apply. To get a custom quote based on your specific situation, contact a Citizens State Bank representative.
The annual percentage rate (APR), is the cost of credit over the term of the loan expressed as an annual rate. The APR shown here is based on the interest rates and does not take into account other loan specific finance charges you may be required to pay.
Results shown are estimates only. Speak with a Citizens State Bank representative for more specific information.
Payments shown do not include amounts for taxes and insurance. Your actual rate, payment and costs could be higher. Get an official Loan Estimate before choosing a loan.
For the Adjustable-Rate Mortgage (ARM) product, interest is fixed for a set period of time, and adjusts periodically thereafter. At the end of the fixed-rate period, the interest and payments may increase. The APR may increase after the loan consummation. Interest only loans may be available depending on your credit profile and provide for the payment of interest only for a set period of time, and payments of principal and interest thereafter. While making interest only payments, principal is not reduced. At the end of this period your monthly payment will increase, possibly substantially, because you will be required to pay down the outstanding principal. Always consider paying more than the minimum payment to pay down the principal.
