What's The Age And Full Retirement Payment?

What's the age and full retirement payment

Hi. A person's full retirement age (FRA) for Social Security retirement benefits depends on their year of birth. You can find you FRA by checking the chart in the following Social Security website: https://www.ssa.gov/OP_Home/cfr20/404/404-0409.htm.

Social Security retirement benefit amounts vary depending on an average of a person's highest 35 years of Social Security covered wage-indexed earnings. So, your Social Security retirement benefit amount would depend on your earnings history.

You may want to consider using our software (https://maximizemysocialsecurity.com/purchase) to fully compare and analyze all of your options so that you can determine your best strategy for maximizing your benefits. The software includes a Social Security benefit calculator that could help you determine your potential benefit rates.

Best, Jerry
