Program Description

Event Details

Are you ready to retire, or taking that leap in a few years?  For many people nearing retirement, the decision of when to collect Social Security benefits has become increasingly difficult.  But it's also one of the most important financial decisions you'll make.  Maximizing your benefit and choosing the best solution for you requires learning about the basics of Social Security and how to apply the information to your own unique situation.  There is no "one-size-fits-all approach" to collecting Social Security benefits!  If you're age 55-70 and retirement is in your future, this in-person program will provide you with information about how to make a more informed claiming decision.  Some topics to be discussed:

  • When is the best time to collect my Social Security benefits?
  • Can I collect benefits if I'm still working?
  • Is it better to collect benefits sooner rather than later?
  • How are my Social Security benefits calculated?
  • Should my spouse collect my benefits instead of their own?
