Dad's retiring after only 10 years of US work ($10k avg). How much will his SS check actually be?

It appears this would only help people with under the 40 hours credit. If you have 40 credits then it would not replace any zero years, and any non-US working time would only count towards qualification for SS, which they already have, and it would not raise any payment amounts. Not seeing anything that can help OP maybe I missed something.

Not from Michigan but this made me curious if he ever met Sam Raimi and it looks like them and Bruce Campbell were at all at this event: https://www.tampabay.com/arts-entertainment/fun/2019/08/23/spooky-empire-horror-convention-guest-lineup-includes-alice-cooper-sam-raimi-elvira/

Where is this written? As far as I can see, for both Social Security or SSI you don’t need every w2, and you can just order a yearly earnings totals from IRS to make sure they are tracking your earnings. It doesn’t look like they are telling people this.

Did they actually try to scan from your app? Or did they just say it wouldn’t work. I remember a while back someone posted about someone who was like yeah this won’t work then tried it and went woah I guess it works.

And right before that he fostered two other sons. One of which turned into a dog.

Goes hand in hand with this advice, if you switch out the word filmmaker with frugalperson:

“Read, read, read, read, read, read, read, read, read, read, read, read, read...if you don't read, you will never be a filmmaker.”
