OK good. Now, regarding my retirement benefits calculation, I want to know how I can get a more precise result of my estimated benefit?
Yes, for a more precise result you can use the Detailed Calculator.
and what if I qualify for benefits as a survivor?
In that case, the age at which you get the retirement benefits may be different. I mean, your full retirement age.
Does it make any difference in the results if my birthday is on January 1st?
for January 1st birthdays, the benefits are calculated as if your birthday was in the previous year.
