Widows Urged to File for Social Security at 62
Floyd B. Ellington, Social Security Manager, advises widows to apply for benefits as soon as they reach 62, ideally a month before. He notes that while a woman's own or living husband’s benefit may be reduced before 65, widow benefits are not reduced and reach full amount at 62, so widows who previously received a lump sum should reapply at 62 to speed the first check.
