Best Answer

Yes. If you retire at age 62, you can earn $1,180 per month ($14,160 per year) in wages and an unlimited amount of income from passive sources, like 401k, annuities, dividends, non-government pensions, etc.

The most you can earn in any year prior to reaching full retirement age (most likely 66) is $14,160. If you exceed the limit, the SSA will temporarily reduce your future benefits by $1.00 for every $2.00 earned over the cap. Social Security will withhold your benefit check beginning in January of the following year until the entire overage has been offset.

How do you take some of your social security money out early?

The only way to access Social Security money early is to retire early, but within the restrictions of the Social Security System. If you do that, your monthly payments will be smaller than if you retired at the "normal" time or later.


You are currently self employed and make a monthly payment to the IRS for some back taxes Can you still retire and start collecting Social Security as long as you continue to make your back tax paymen?

The IRS seems to be happy as long as they get their money. Lots of people have retired and started collecting Social Security while paying back taxes. I have no idea how it works, but I know people who have done it.


What is fica retire?

It's either Social Security, or a combination of Social Security and Medicare. Paycheck deduction statements may combine the individual FICA deduction for Medicare and Social Security into one deduction and call it "Retire". Rest assured that it's not YOUR retirement, and you'll never see that money again.

Are teachers who receive state retirement ever able to collect Social Security My State says no. Do I have to move to one of the 14 States without state pensions I need more info?

It depends on several factors. First of all if your entire working career has been as a teacher in one of the 14 states whose teachers do not pay into social security, then the answer would be that you would receive no social security benefit because you never paid any money into it. Now, lets say you work as a teacher for 15 years in a state whose teachers DO pay into social security, such as Pennsylvania. You then decide to work for 15 years as a teacher in Ohio whose teachers do NOT pay into social security. Once you retire, you would indeed get social security due to the fact you worked 15 years in PA and paid into SS. HOWEVER, you would take a hit (called the Windfall Provision) because you are also collecting money from Ohio's pension.

What does the money form social security taxes fund?

Social security is basically when the government takes a certain percentage of money from the working generation and gives it to the retired generation. When the working generation become retired, they receive social security. Social security started after the Great Depression, when the government needed to make sure that people had money stored away to live after they stopped working. People get certain amounts of social security depending on how much they and their spouses worked as young people, as well as what jobs and how much they gave to social security. The current problem with social security is that the baby boomers are now becoming retired, and there are more of them than the current generation of working people. There is not enough money to support these retiring people, and unless the government subsidies social security or takes other measures, it is likely to fall apart before people currently in their 30s and 40s become retired. So basically, the idea of how social security works is that you put away money and you will get that money when you retire.


Can i retire at age 62 if i was born in 1970?

It doesn't matter when you were born. If you save up enough money, you can retire whenever you want to. You won't get Social Security until you are 65 though (if it's even still around by then).
