full retirement age

Benefits eligibility milestone

Full retirement age is the age at which a person qualifies for full Social Security benefits in the United States—currently between 66 and 67, depending on birth year.

Claiming benefits before full retirement age reduces monthly payments; waiting until after increases them.
