But that is not always the wisest choice. In some cases, the widow or widower would do better to take a survivor benefit first and then switch to his or her own benefit at age 70. Two keys to the decision: for those born between 1943 and 1954, if you start collecting benefits at age 62, the amount will be permanently reduced to 75 percent of full benefits. (There's a month- by-month difference between ages 62 and 66.) One the other hand, if you wait, the benefits will increase by a small percentage each year until you reach age 70. It calls for some calculation before you decide. Compare expected benefits for each at full retirement age. Claiming the survivor's benefit - even a reduced benefit at age 62 - may pay better than the earned benefits of the lower earner. But by age 70, her or his own earned benefits may top that of the higher earner, Let us do the math to help you decide. We're the tax and finance experts at: '3 307 W.
