FAQ

When the full-benefit age reaches 67, benefits taken at age 62 will be reduced to 70 percent of the full benefit and benefits first taken at age 65 will be reduced to 86.7 percent of the full benefit. There is a financial bonus for delayed retirement.

The full retirement age increases gradually if you were born from 1955 to 1960 until it reaches 67. For anyone born 1960 or later, full retirement benefits are payable at age 67.

Service Retirement (Unreduced Benefits) You may retire with unreduced service retirement benefits after: you reach age 65 and complete five years of creditable service, or. you reach age 60 and complete 25 years of creditable service, or. you complete 30 years of creditable service, at any age.

Certain circumstances make it logical to claim benefits as soon as you're eligible. “If you need the income at 62, you are going to claim,” Orman wrote. “Or if you arrive at age 62 in poor health, claiming your benefit early may make sense.”

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.

The earnings limit for people reaching their “full” retirement age in 2025 will increase to $62,160. (We deduct $1 from benefits for each $3 earned over $62,160 until the month the worker turns “full” retirement age.) There is no limit on earnings for workers who are "full" retirement age or older for the entire year.

If you were born in 1960 or later, your full retirement age is 67 (En espaol) You can start receiving your Social Security retirement benefits as early as age 62, but the benefit amount you receive will be less than your full retirement benefit amount.

You may be eligible to collect Social Security as early as 62, but waiting until age 70 yields greater benefits for most people. Here's help on how to decide.
