Its Finally Official

Since 2012 I've Been on Social Security Disability. Well, the Soc. Sec. Office sent me a letter informing me that I am officially in the Older Than Dirt Club and am now on Regular Soc. Sec. as I reached the full Retirement age of 66.5 years old, and no longer meet the Disabled Requirements due to my age...Money Benefits don't change. The only thing that really changes is that I'm no longer on SSDI, just S.S..
Yes, I know there's others that have aged more than me, not sayin' nothing bad, just I'm a new member of the club....

It is a milestone for sure.

Doe that mean you can now earn and lose your benefit?

Could do that before. According to Ms. Joyce, she says I can get off my carcus and earn more money now...I said, "You mean get a Job???". I can earn more money on regular soc.sec. and not affect the amount of Soc. Sec. I recieve. Of coarse, you supposed to report all income.

There are ways to supplement your Social Security income by working part-time. Social Security has a limit on this - how much additional income you earn while receiving full SS benefits without being penalized with a check reduction. Contact your local SS office for information. There are lots of us who do this.

Since you are 66.5 then you have been on medicare long enough to not like it too much ..... At first I didn't like it at all, but now I have learned how to take advantage of it .... YOU HAVE TO DEMAND EVERYTHING!!!

Welcome to the older club. Some call it the Golden Years but I’m 72 and I haven’t found any gold yet. But I have meet a lot of nice doctors. Due to being self-employed I started drawing mine at 62 but after I turned 65 I could start getting a normal check again.
I hope you enjoy the regular retirement and THANK YOU for your military service.

If he is at full retirement age he can earn as much money as he wants and social security is not reduced at all. This has been the law for a number of years now.
