You can begin receiving Social Security at age 62. The amount that you receive gets higher the longer you wait to apply for Social Security. That's the basic, simple answer. However, there are circumstances under which a person could receive SS benefits prior to age 62.

∙ 7y agoAs long as you have paid into Social Security (FICA) for at least 40 quarters (about 10 years) you could be eligible to receive benefits as early as age 62. Full retirement for Social Security is between 65 and 67 years of age dependent upon your year of birth. If you take benefits at age 62 those will be in a reduced amount for the rest of your life. It's always best to wait until your full retirement age (or later) until you start drawing benefits so that you can receive the maximum amount that you are entitled to.
