Limits on Earned Income If Claiming Early Benefits. Until you reach full retirement age, Social Security will subtract money from your retirement check if you exceed a certain amount of earned income for the year. For the year 2017, this limit on earned income is $16,920 ($1,410 per month). The amount goes up each year. If you are collecting Social Security retirement benefits before full retirement age, your benefits are reduced by $1 for every $2 you earn over the limit. Once you reach full retirement age, there is no limit on the amount of money you may earn and still receive your full Social Security retirement benefit.
Benefits and Work. If you start benefits between the month you turn 62 and the month you reach full retirement age, the Social Security Administration will deduct one dollar from your annual benefit amount for every two dollars you make above an annual limit. As of 2013, this limit is $15,120 or $1,260 per month. To figure how much you can work and still get benefits, double your annual benefit amount and add the $15,120 limit. Suppose your annual benefit is $15,000. You can make at most $30,000 plus $15,120 or $45,120. At this point your benefit amount reaches zero.
