Upon first glance this certainly looks like an official U.S. site with the colors of dark blue and red and a U.S. Social Security logo in the corner. This is the official website for the U.S. Social Security Administration. There is a search box and different languages for those who need it. You can even switch to larger text. Sections at the top include retirement, survivors, disability, supplemental security income and Medicare.

On the left hand side of the page you will find different topics like: What You Can Do Online, Business Services Online, Forms and Publications, Careers with Social Security and Contact Us. In the middle of the page is a short video about the site as well as how to apply online for retirement benefits and disability and getting a social security card. You can watch some videos and learn how to save a lot of money.

There is also a link to the Economic Recovery One-Time Payments. There is a questions box that contains useful links along with a news box. The site may appear contained and small but once you start to click on the different sections there is an astounding amount of information to cover.
