sOCIAL sECURITY WILL PAY OFF, IF YOU WORKED ($1,000 min)EVERY QUARTER FOR 16 QUARTERs OR 4 YEARS, in social security paid in employment. ANYTHING OLDER IS NOT INCLUDED. WAITING EVEN FEW DAYS COULD COMPLETELY DISQUALIFY YOU (Lost last quarters eligibility).Having to start ALL Over, for 16 more quarters. sOMETIMES ssa OFFICE WILL SUDDENLY CHANGE TO irs OFFICE & WORKERS STATE:THAT SHOULD TELL YOU SOMETHING.
Finally, if your 62, you can quit & report in that day & recieve 3/4 of pension, just 4 years earlier than full retirement would have paid. It can be scam of paid in monies with absolutely NO Returns Possible, with wrong idea how it works. Don't Twiddle YOUR rEtIREMENT AWAY BY aNY dELAY IN aPPLICATION.

... this is old news, very old news and not news at all really.

The process works to perfection and even advises you when you have entered "impossible" information such as conflicting dates.

The Social Security offices have always been lifeless, the Govern-ment just finally organized and automated it. And did a bang-up job too.

...like a charm. Online app leads one to believe he/she will get a call from a live person to schedule an in-house interview, but it never happened. Received notice in the mail it had been accepted.
