FAQ
Early retirement You can receive Social Security retirement benefits as early as age 62. However, we'll reduce your benefit if you start receiving benefits before your full retirement age. For example, if you turn age 62 in 2025, your benefit would be about 30% lower than it would be at your full retirement age of 67.
A worker can choose to retire as early as age 62, but doing so may result in a reduction of as much as 30 percent. Starting to receive benefits after normal retirement age may result in larger benefits. With delayed retirement credits, a person can receive his or her largest benefit by retiring at age 70.
Calculating the retirement age depends on your year of birth. If you were born before 1948, then you can retire at 55. If you were born in 1970 or later, you can enjoy minimum retirement at 57. And if you were born between 1948 and 1970, your minimum retirement age will be between 55 and 2 months and 56 and 10 months.
However, you unfortunately cannot begin receiving Social Security retirement benefits at 55. The earliest age you can begin drawing Social Security retirement benefits is 62. But there's a catch – taking Social Security benefits prior to reaching your full retirement age results in a reduction of your benefit amount.
Age may be just a number, but that number matters when it comes to retiring. The common definition of early retirement is any age before 65 — that's when you may qualify for Medicare benefits. Currently, men retire at an average age of 64, while for women the average retirement age is 62.
Eligible employees must: If retiring under CSRS, employees must have been covered under CSRS for one year out of the last two years. Must be at least age 50 with 20 years of creditable service or any age with 25 years of creditable service when separated. At least 5 years must be creditable civilian service.
Once you reach 30 years of service or are vested at age 60, you are eligible for an immediate benefit without reduction. If you are an Old Plan Member, you are eligible for extended benefits with 34 years of service.
When can you claim your state pension? The state pension age is currently 66 – but it's due to rise to 67 by 2028. You can't claim the state pension any earlier. If you choose to retire before then, you can take your workplace and personal pensions, but will have to wait to claim your state pension.
