two factors will come into play: whether you are before your full retirement age or if you are at or past your full retirement age will almost make the decision for you. If you are prior to full retirement age , you automatically receive the higher of the two benefits, whether it's your own retirement or that spousal amount. So you don't get to choose one or the other. With early retirement, you are restricted to the higher of the two. Benz: OK. So the spousal benefit, that full retirement age is a big swing factor there. So if I am of full retirement age and I take a spousal benefit, let's talk about what I get in that case or if I file early, what my benefit is at that point? Salata: At full retirement age , you'd be eligible as a spouse for 50% of the worker's record or you can receive your own Social Security benefits atand you can delay up to age 70. So for our full retirement age workers now who are turning 66, that's four years, or 32% extra. Normally if you're delaying for retirement benefits, you're not receivingtake benefits at 60, you receive 71.5%. If you're at your full retirement age , you would receive the full amount of the deceased worker, your deceased spouse's benefit. Another factor involved is if your spouse takes -

Hi, I'm Christine Benz for Morningstar.com. Many people are working past traditional retirement age , but that has implications for Social Security benefits. Joining me to discuss that topic is Andrew Salata. He is a public affairs specialist with the Social Security Administration. Andrew, thank you so much for being here. Andrew Salata: Thank you for having the chance to talk with you about some of the information about working after retirement and how it affects people. It's something we're seeing more and more. So it is timely. Benz: A lot of people really have no choice but to continue working past that traditional retirement age . Let's get the good news right out of the way, which is that if you are full retirement age , you can continue to earn Social Security benefits, and those benefits won't be affected no matter what you earn from your job, correct? Salata: Correct. If you're at your full retirement age --which for those who we are seeing now born between 1943 in 1954 is 66--if you're already 66 and you continue working, thosestart to get cut back if you are prior to that full retirement age and you're still earning a paycheck. Let's talk about the thresholds that kick in and in turn what happens to your Socialso we'll know at what level you are, whether you're over full retirement age or not; your estimated work earnings for the calendar year; and then your Social Security monthly amount. And you just plug-in those -
