Can people born in 1958 still draw their Social Security retirement benefits at 62 years old?
Yes. You can take early retirement at age 62 if you have accumulated the required 40 work credits, but your benefit amount will be reduced to approximately 75% of what you wou…ld receive if you postponed retirement until full retirement age. People born in 1958 reach full retirement age at 66 + 8 months (eight months after your 66th birthday in 2024).

If you draw Social Security at 62 how much additional money can you make?
Earned Income If you are 62 years old in 2010, you will reach full retirement age at 66. Under 2010 SSA guidelines, people who have not yet reached full retirement age can ea…rn only $14,160 per year without incurring a penalty. For every $2.00 over the limit, $1.00 is withheld from benefits. There is an exception for the first year of early retirement, though (in this case, age 62). In the first year, there is no limit on the amount of income you can earn prior to the month you retire. You will not be penalized for pre-retirement income. For the remainder of the year, you will receive a full benefit check for each month in which you earn $1,180 or less (one-twelfth of $14,160). If you earn more than the maximum allowed, the Social Security Administration will withhold your monthly benefit check beginning in January of the following year until the overage is completely offset. Unearned Income There is no limit on passive (unearned) income you can receive from other sources, such as pension, annuities, capital gains, dividends, gifts, etc. There is also no limit to the amount of income other family or household members may earn. None of this money affects your retirement benefits, regardless of your age.

Can you draw Worker's Comp and Social Security at age 62?
Yes, but your Social Security benefits may be temporarily reduced to prevent a windfall. If you are collecting from both programs, the maximum you can receive is 80% of your c…urrent (most recent) average wage. Also be aware that your Social Security check at 62 will be approximately 75% of what you would have received at full retirement age (in your case, probably 66). The base amount will not increase in the future, unless you return to work and continue contributing to the Social Security trust fund.

Is it best to draw Social Security benefits at 62 or full retirement age?

My husband and I are the same age but I want to draw on husband's social security when I am 62 and he will wait until he is 66 can we do it that way?
Nope, you have to wait until he collects before you can collect on his. However, you can collect on your own.

Can a wife draw on husbands Social Security if he died before age 62?
Not until she her self reaches age 60 unless she has children at home under age 18. There is always the possibilities she could draw Disability if unable to work. Some women g…et catch in what we call that danger gap of when their husband is older then them and dies. When he dies if she is not age 60 she gets nothing no matter what he was drawing if he was retired unless as stated about the children at home yet. I guess thats why my insurance man when I was young it was important to have good life insurance to protect your wife in the event you died. I see what he means now when I see allot of ladies in their late 50's working hard jobs or flipping burgers just to make ends meet until they reach age 60 to draw on their spouse. Some really dont look to the future on this or save incase this happens for example a stay at home mom with no outside the home working experience and they have lived a really great life since he had an above average job. If they didnt save or have insurance on him then the world can cave in for a woman. Hope this helps in some way. The younger a person gets insurance the cheaper it is and course before something is detected medically by allot of young people dont think about tomorrow alone 30-40 years from now.
