What is the maximum Social Security retirement benefit payable? The maximum benefit depends on the age you retire. For example, if you retire at full retirement age in 2017, your maximum benefit would be $2,687. However, if you retire at age 62 in 2017, your maximum benefit would be $2,153. If you retire at age 70 in 2017, your maximum benefit would be $3,538.
Social Security eligibility depends on your birth year. Reduced benefits are available at age 62. The longer you wait to begin collecting, the higher your payment will be up to age 70. Your family members may be able to receive benefits based on your record.
