No, you cannot collect Social Security benefits until you reach the minimum retirement age, which is currently 62.
You can collect full Social Security benefits at your full retirement age, which is typically between 66 and 67, depending on the year you were born.
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.

When you reach the age of retirement. This age varies on your birth date and if you have 40 quarters of work. With these two things you file with them in person, online, or by phone.
The age for retirement varies depending on the amount of time you have worked. For a list of Social Security benefit requirements go her to the governments social security website found at www.ssa.gov.
No. There really is no such thing as "unused" benefits. If a person pays FICA (Social Security and Medicare) taxes but dies before he or she can collect benefits, his or her widow or widower and minor children, or adult children disabled before age 22 (if applicable) can collect monthly checks for survivors' benefits. Able-bodied adult children or those who became disabled after age 22 cannot collect benefits from their mother's Social Security (FICA) contributions. The unpaid amount remains in the Social Security trust fund.
