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.
Once you reach the year of your full retirement age, yet before the month you reach full retirement, you can earn up to $37,680 without penalty. For each $3 you earn over the limit, Social Security deducts $1 from your benefit amount.
