Webinar Topics
Social Security - Learn about Social Security planning. Duncan Financial Group’s Social Security Expert, Nancy Conner, will discuss strategies to get the best Social Security benefit that you can - not only in retirement, but while you are still working. She will also discuss which benefits are right for you and when you need to apply.
Preparing Your Pension Paperwork - This seminar is for employees that are vested, of retirement age and planning to retire within a year. Completing your Pension Paperwork is offered quarterly, typically in February, May, August and December. Please plan to attend one of the sessions if you plan to retire within a year.
Medicare - Some of the question that will be addressed include: What is it? When do I apply? Do I apply if I am still working? What does it cost? What does it cover? How much does it pay?
Identity Theft - What happens when someone steals your personal information to commit fraud? How can you identify it quickly to prevent the use of your information to fraudulently apply for credit, file taxes, or get medical services? These acts can damage your credit status and cost you time and money to restore your good name. Find out everything you need to know!
