A question in concerns to collecting Social Security at 65 years of age and working?

Yes it's true. However you may have to pay income taxes on part of your social security earnings.

Well you were told wrong. Once upon a time it WAS age 65 but it is now age 66 and eventually it will be age 67 when a person can work and earn as much as they like and collect all of their social security benefits.

Citation numbers? LOL. Look it up at ssa.gov or just query "The social security retirement test" which is what social security calls it.

And btw, a portion of the social security benefit is taxable if you are single and have other income of $25K or more a year or, if married, $32K.

When you reach 65, your benefit is no longer considered Social Security. It is considered your State Pension, for which you make contributions throughout your working life. So your pension from the state is based upon the number of years you worked and possibly your final salary earnings. When you reach retirement age, you no longer contribute towards your pension, therefore if you decide to carry on working, your wages should automatically rise by that amount. Well at lest this is the case in the UK. I'm not sure if the same applies in America.

You still get SS if you work, those wages are subject to SS tax, and some or all of the SS income can be come taxable, depending on what your wages are.

If you still work full time, it's incredibly dumb to take SS for multiple reasons.

Novel concept... ask somebody at Social Security.

call SS they will tell you.....I think there is a limit, but not positive, I'm done with work.
