Questions and Answers
Q. I am thinking about retiring
in about three months — if the
amount I can get from social se
curity plus my company pension
will be enough for me to live
on. Can I find out how much I’ll
get before I actually resign?
A. Yes. You should call at
your local social security office
for this information. You should
bring your social security card
and the amount of wages earned
this year.
Q. People have told me I would
have to file for my social secur
ity about six months before I am
65 in order to get all my bene
fits. Is this correct?
A. No. You may file as late as
the month you are 66 (if a man,
63 if a woman) and still get all
your benefits. But, in order to
avoid a long wait, you should
stop in at your local social se
curity office about three months
before you retire to be sure
everything is in order.
Q. How can I get enough evi
dence of my age to satisfy the
Social Security Administration?
A. You may have enough al
ready. You should contact a Social
Security representative about
three months before you retire. If
your evidence is not enough, you
will have time to get the evi
dence before you retire and avoid
a long delay in getting your
benefits.

Social Security, write to your
