And I must make one more important point about all this maximum benefit business. I just said that the maximum Social Security benefit this year is $2,663. But there are many people getting more than that.
What's the Maximum You Can Receive? How much you receive in monthly Social Security benefits is determined by factors including how long you worked in a qualifying job, how much you made, and your age at the time you start collecting those benefits. The maximum Social Security benefit you can receive is set, and that amount changes each year. There is an incentive for people to wait until full retirement age (66 or 67 depending on when you were born) or even longer (until you reach age 70) to start collecting benefits. In 2015, the maximum monthly benefit is $2,663 if you are at full retirement age, but could be $3,501 if you wait to start to receive payments at 70 years old.
