• Social Security Benefits

    From Stuart O. Bronstein@21:1/5 to All on Sun Mar 27 12:15:30 2022
    I have a recollection of hearing that the age that Social Security
    benefits continue to grow has changed from 70 to 72. But on the SSA
    website it says it's still 70.

    Did I misunderstand?

    Thanks for any clarifications.

    That's 42 USC 402(w) and it hasn't changed, still stops at 70.

    Perhaps you're thinking of RMDs from retirement plans which were
    changed from 70.5 to 72 by the SECURE act in 2019.

    Thanks John. Makes sense.
