As a matter of fact, it will soon be <strong>67<\/strong> for those American citizens born in <strong>1960<\/strong> or later. Therefore, it will increase by 2 years if compared to the previous normal retirement age of 65.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Social Security&#8217;s<\/strong> Full Retirement Age is the age when a worker can receive 100% of their<strong> retirement benefits<\/strong> and will not get a reduction. That is why it is important for citizens to know when this moment takes place. Early filing can considerably reduce your monthly payment. In fact, not all workers can afford to get a reduction, and not everyone has saved the same amount of money for retirement.<\/p>\n<h2>Were you born from 03\/02\/1959 to 03\/31\/1959?

Do you think this retirement payment amount will not be enough?<\/p>\n<p>Then, you could delay <strong>retirement<\/strong> until you turn <strong>70 years old<\/strong>. It will mean you will receive a reward from the<strong> Social Security Administration<\/strong>. Each year you work and pay taxes to the SSA, you get about 8% extra.<\/p>\n<p>In total, a worker who delays <strong>retirement<\/strong> until they are 70 years old receives <strong>24% extra<\/strong> per month. It could be a great amount of money if your monthly payment is one of the highest because of your work history.<\/p>\n<p>Actually, the largest <strong>Social Security payment<\/strong> is <strong>$5,108<\/strong> at 70.
