Note: Under law, a trust fund cannot incur a negative balance. The OASI Trust Fund will be depleted in 2033 while the DI Trust Fund will not be depleted within the 75-year long-range projection period. Combined, the trust funds would be depleted in 2035. Data for years in which trust funds become depleted are set to zero for illustrative purposes. Asset reserves as a percentage of annual costs at the beginning of respective depletion years are projected to be 16% for OASI and 7% for OASDI.
