When to start taking your Social Security benefits?
This is a critical retirement decision. You may start as early as 62 but the payment reaches full potential at your Full Retirement Age as set by the Social Security Administration. The monthly payment can grow even further if you decide to wait till age 70. It is nice start getting the funds sooner than later but does it really work out better?
The answer depends on how long you plan on working, marital status, life expectancy, inflation and other factors. A careful analysis is needed to make an informed once-in-a-lifetime decision.

This simple exercise can now be expanded with other factors such as the inflation rate, life expectancy, rate-of-return, expenses and tax related information.

COMPUTATIONS
This app uses three key items in projecting the Social Security benefit amounts-
1. Date of birth
2. Benefit claiming age
3. Benefit at full retirement age
This benefit can be claimed at age 62 and onwards. The monthly amount of benefit increases when you delay claiming this benefit. This benefit must be claimed by age 70. The benefit depends on your full retirement age (FRA) benefit – this is the amount you will get monthly if you claim the social security benefit at your full retirement age. The value of this amount is provided to you periodically by Social Security Administration (SSA). SSA publishes a data grid that shows the percentage of FRA benefit is available at ages between 62 and 70 based on your birth year.

SSA also provides the source code of social security benefit calculator which we use periodically to verify computation results. For further details and more information about SSA provided please visit (https://www.ssa.gov/OACT/anypia/download.html).
