Limits on Earned Income If Claiming Early Benefits. Until you reach full retirement age, Social Security will subtract money from your retirement check if you exceed a certain amount of earned income for the year. For the year 2017, this limit on earned income is $16,920 ($1,410 per month). The amount goes up each year. If you are collecting Social Security retirement benefits before full retirement age, your benefits are reduced by $1 for every $2 you earn over the limit.
I am 69 years old and collect Social Security. If I get a part-time job - what is the maximum amount I can earn and still keep my Social Security amount? You can earn any amount and collect your Social Security if you are 69 years old and receive Social Security retirement, spouseâs or widow(er)s benefits. The Social Security annual earnings limit no longer applies to retirement and spousal benefits as of the month you attain full retirement age. Full retirement age is 66 for people born between 1943 and 1954.
