Earnings Test. As of 2013, when you get SS benefits between the month you turn 62 and the month you reach full retirement age, you lose $1 in benefits for every $2 you earn from working in excess of $15,120. If you receive benefits for only part of a year, the earnings limit is prorated on a monthly basis.
To qualify for Social Security retirement, you must work and earn at least 40 work credits, by paying in to the Social Security system through payroll taxes. You can earn a maximum of 4 credits every year. If you don't have the work credits, then you can't draw any retirement.
