The earliest age that you can retire is at 62 years old.
No, the earliest you can collect Social Security retirement benefits is age 62. While you may be able to retire at age 55, you will need to have other resources to draw from until you are eligible for Social Security. Retiring at age 55 is difficult for most people. Not only are not you not eligible for Social Security for many more years, but in general, you can't access your retirement accounts until you reach age 59 1/2. Also, you don't qualify for Medicare until age 65. All of these combined make it very difficult for the average person to retire at 55. If you are retiring because of disability and qualify for Social Security disability benefits, you can collect those before age 62.
As I understand you can make as much as you want after age 66 and still draw your full social security.
You can only draw Social Security benefits at age 55 if you are disabled.
Don't think so, but go to the social security website for help. You need 40 quarters to collect social security and be 65.
Payment for retirement begins at 62 (at a reduced level), but payment for disability can be at any age.
For a minor child (under age 18) to collect Social Security, the child's parents must be eligible for Social Security. This generally occurs when the parent(s) become 62 or "permanently and totally disabled" as defined by Social Security.
You can collect Social Security retirement benefits as early as age 62 in 2014, but they will only be approximately 75% of the amount you can collect at your full retirement age of 66, in 2018.
In the United States, ever since the 13th amendment to the Constitution was ratified, you can retire at any age you want. However, you will not be able to collect Social Security at that age (unless you are disabled). Withdrawals from an IRA or 401k will be penalized unless part of a SEPP plan. Whether you will be able to collect payments under a defined benefit plan will depend on the terms specified in the plan documents.
