Wait until your full benefit age or later. Taking it before your full benefit age reduces your monthly check. Waiting several years after your full benefit age will increase your monthly check. Do not rely solely on Social Security to get you financially secure for the rest of your life. Invest in other means like an annuity to make sure that you have enough income to cover most anything that comes along, a newer car, health problems, rises in insurance premiums, rises in taxes, rises in the cost of living, etc.

Can you apply for Social Security at age 59?
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.
