Best Answer

Only if you qualify for SSDI (disability) or survivors' benefits under Social Security guidelines. A widow, widower, or qualifying ex-spouse may receive Social Security survivors' benefits for retirement as early as age 60, or age 50 if disabled.

The earliest a person can collect regular Social Security retirement benefits is age 62.

Yes, however if you begin drawing retirement benefits at age 62 you would only receive approximately 75% of the amount you would be entitled to by waiting until full retirement age to file (66). Also, if you are earning more than $14,160 per year, your benefits will be temporarily reduced by $1.00 for every $2.00 you earn over the limit. If you earn enough income, filing early can become a zero-sum game.

You can request a statement from Social Security to help determine whether drawing early benefits is in your best interest, or whether you should wait for now.

it is now 2017 and If you were born in 1963, you are now 54. In the UK you are of working age and provided you qualify, you could claim jobseekes allowance if you are out of work or ESA if you are sick up to your retirement age. At the moment your state retirement age would be 67.

Yes. You have reached full retirement age for anyone born before 1954, so you can work and receive your benefits without incurring a penalty.
