What is the Social Security Retirement Age? Social Security's full-benefit retirement age is increasing gradually because of legislation passed by Congress in 1983. Traditionally, the full benefit age was 65, and early retirement benefits were first available at age 62, with a permanent reduction to 80 percent of the full benefit amount. Currently, the full benefit age is 66 for people born in 1943-1954, and it will gradually rise to 67 for those born in 1960 or later.
However, you only receive 100% of your benefit if you wait to claim until your full retirement age. Currently, Social Security's full retirement age is 66 and two months for people turning 62 this year. It increases by two months annually until it reaches age 67 for people born in or after 1960. The following table shows every full retirement age by birth year for easy reference.
