Social Security Retirement Benefits Rules Update
New retirement provisions detail retroactive benefits starting Jan 1 1965. Wives can receive half the worker’s primary benefit with possible 25 percent reduction if the wife also claims her share before a child is entitled. Family maximums range from 66 to 304.20 monthly, potentially up to 368 in 1967. A Sept 1 1965 rule offers a flat 35 monthly benefit after meeting nine months since 1937, with wives eligible for an extra 17.50 if they turn 72 before 1969. You need not quit work to receive retirement benefits.
