Yes, under the current laws anyone who has accumulated 40 work credits may retire at age 62, but you will only receive approximately 75% of the benefit you would be entitled to if you filed at full retirement age. Your year of birth is the determining factor in when SSA considers you to be full retirement age. For people born between 1943 and 1954, the age is 66.

∙ 13y agoYes, a widow or widower can draw reduced survivors' benefits at age 60. In order to receive the full amount, you would have to wait until full retirement age (65 for people born before 1943; 66 for people born between 1943 and 1954) to file.

∙ 13y agoYes, 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 current (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.
