How many years do you have to work to receive Social Security benefits in 2025?

If you're planning for retirement in 2025, one of the most important questions to ask is: How many years do I need to work to qualify for Social Security benefits? The answer, while straightforward, depends on how many credits you've earned over the course of your working life.Social Security benefits are not automatically granted. Instead, they are based on a credit system established by the Social Security Administration (SSA). These credits reflect your work history and the amount of Social Security taxes you've paid through payroll deductions or self-employment contributions.To become eligible for retirement benefits, you must earn a minimum of 40 credits. As a general rule, this usually requires 10 years of work, assuming you earn enough each year to reach the maximum number of credits available annually."In 2025, you earn one credit for every $1,810 in earnings, up […]

How does working part-time affect SSI? Maximize your monthly Social Security benefits

Working part-time in retirement can provide not only extra income but also a sense of purpose and routine. However, for individuals who rely on Social Security it's important to understand how earnings from part-time work may affect the monthly benefits you receive. The impact varies depending on your age, how much you earn, and which type of Social Security support you're getting.If you've already reached full retirement age (FRA)-which, for anyone born in 1960 or later, is age 67-your Social Security retirement benefits won't be reduced no matter how much you earn. You can take on a part-time job, work full-time, or even start a business without it cutting into your monthly Social Security checks.However, if you begin collecting benefits before you reach your FRA, your earnings from work could temporarily lower the amount of money you receive each month.

If WEP is reducing your benefits, what to do now that the Social Security Fairness Act is law?

The world of Social Security in the United States of America is changing very quickly, and the latest law changes have left millions of Americans unsure of where they stand when it comes to their benefits.On January 5, 2025, then-President Joe Biden signed the Social Security Fairness Act, eliminating the Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP) and Government Pension Offset (GPO).These provisions reduced or eliminated Social Security benefits for workers with pensions from non-Social Security covered jobs, such as teachers, firefighters and police officersAs a result of this law, more than 3.2 million beneficiaries, mainly public servants, began to receive retroactive payments that compensate for previous reductions in their benefits.As of March 4, more than $7.5 billion in back payments had been distributed to approximately 1.13 million people, with an average payment of $6,710 per beneficiary.In addition to the back payments, affected […]

Here’s why you may receive a request from the SSA about your pension amount

In a historic move for public servants across the United States, former President Joe Biden signed the Social Security Fairness Act into law on January 5, 2025. This transformative legislation eliminates two long-criticized provisions - the Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP) and the Government Pension Offset (GPO) - restoring full Social Security benefits to millions of Americans. The change is retroactive to January 1, 2024, and is being hailed as a monumental step forward for those who have spent decades advocating for equity in retirement benefits.Both the WEP and GPO have long impacted public sector employees, often reducing their retirement income despite years of contributing to Social Security through other jobs. The WEP affected individuals who received pensions from employment not covered by Social Security, such as teaching or policing, while the GPO reduced the Social Security spousal and survivor benefits […]

Social Security rolls back on in-person attendance requirements: Here’s what will happen with phone services

Just days before a new Social Security Administration (SSA) policy was scheduled to take effect, the Trump administration has reversed course on a controversial requirement that would have forced many Americans to verify their identities in person.The reversal comes after mounting pressure from senior advocacy groups, disability organizations, and Democratic lawmakers, who warned that the rule would have created significant barriers for millions of vulnerable beneficiaries-particularly seniors living in rural or underserved areas.Technological upgrades prompt last-minute policy shiftOriginally announced last month, the policy would have discontinued widely used telephone services for those unable to use the SSA's online identity verification system, instead requiring them to travel to a local field office to complete their claims. But on Thursday, White House spokesperson Liz Huston confirmed that telephone-based services would remain available."President Trump has repeatedly promised to protect Social Security and uproot […]

What to do if you receive a letter about Social Security overpayments? Will you have to repay?

If you've received a letter from the Social Security Administration (SSA) saying you were overpaid, you're likely wondering whether you'll need to return that money - and how it will affect your benefits. Under a new rule that went into effect on March 27, 2025, the SSA has changed how it recovers overpayments, and it could leave some beneficiaries without payments until their debt is repaid.Previously, the SSA would typically recover overpayments gradually, withholding 10% of a recipient's monthly benefit. That policy, intended to ease the financial burden on those affected, has now been reversed. Beneficiaries who are overpaid after March 27 will now see 100% of their monthly benefit withheld until the overpayment is fully recovered. That means no monthly checks until the debt is cleared - a major change that has sparked concern among many Social Security recipients.The […]
