While SSLG assists former and current clients with Social Security Retirement (SSR) questions, we do not assist non-clients with questions about their SSR benefits. We recommend you contact your financial advisor or the SSA’s Toll-Free number (800–772–1213) for resolution of these questions and other retirement matters.
Once you reach the age at which you can receive full SSA Retirement benefits (Full Retirement Age), the Agency will no longer pay you Disability benefits. Individuals can also elect to start collecting reduced Social Security retirement benefits beginning at age 62. This only makes financial sense in certain situations because those benefits are permanently reduced, which can significantly reduce the lifetime amount of benefits you collect.
