Social Security Calculator

You can claim as early as 62 (reduced benefits) or delay until 70 (maximum benefits). Full retirement age is 66-67 depending on birth year. Delaying increases benefits by about 8% per year.

Benefits are based on your highest 35 years of earnings, adjusted for inflation. The SSA uses a formula with bend points to calculate your Primary Insurance Amount (PIA).

The average monthly benefit in 2024 is about $1,907. Maximum benefit at full retirement age is $3,822. Your actual amount depends on your earnings history.
