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.
If you take Social Security income and your circumstances change, you can âwithdraw your applicationâ even if you have been taking income. You can pay it back but note that you can only do this in the first year. Once you have taken benefits 12 months or longer, this option isnât available. You are working part time. You can still earn income when you draw Social Security early, there are limits though. In 2014, you can earn up to $15,480 a year and receive your early Social Security payment. Over and above that threshold, your Social Security payout is reduced by $1 for every $2 you earn. In the year you reach your full Social Security age, you can earn up $3,450 a month before you reach 66, without affecting your benefits. (In that year, itâs reduced by $1 for every $3 you earn over the limit). The bottom line is if you earn more than the threshold, it doesnât make sense to take your benefit early. Once you have reached your full retirement age, you can earn as much as you like from a job or business and it doesnât affect your Social Security benefit.
