The 2026 edition came out on Tuesday; it is the 86th annual report. And its headline finding is that Social Security’s main retirement trust fund — formally Old-Age and Survivors Insurance, or OASI — is now projected to run out of money in 2032. That’s one year earlier than last year’s projection.
In other words, the fund that pays benefits to America’s retirees is six years away from running dry.
Last year the program collected $1.449 trillion, mostly from payroll taxes, and spent $1.609 trillion.
That $160 billion shortfall was covered by draining the trust fund, whose reserves fell from $2.72 trillion to $2.56 trillion over the course of the year. The program’s costs have exceeded its non-interest income every single year since 2010.
And when it runs dry in six years, they estimate that payroll taxes will cover 78% of scheduled benefits. So the tens of millions of retirees who depend on the program would face an automatic 22% benefit cut on day one.
And it deteriorates from there.
Here’s the part that really boggles the mind: the solutions are already published. The report itself spells them out — raise the payroll tax from 12.40% to 16.65%, or cut everyone’s benefits by 25.2%, or cut benefits 30.3% for future retirees only. Social Security’s own actuaries even maintain an entire catalog of scored reform options, with the financial impact of each one calculated for Congress’s convenience.
The Trustees practically beg lawmakers to act “sooner rather than later,” because every year of delay makes the eventual fix more painful.
