Working and 66 this year? Pehaps you should file earlier.

This exception in the Social Security Law probably only applies to a small minority of people here.

If you turn 66 this year and are still working, it might behoove you to file earlier than your birthday. It seems the penalty for taking SS while earning to much money is a lot less burdensome just before one turns 66.

Congress set up a more lenient earnings threshold for the year you reach your full retirement age. Specifically, it says you can earn up to $46,920 between January and the month you reach your full retirement age and still get Social Security benefits. Even if you earn more than $46,920, for every $3 you exceed that threshold, you lose only $1 from your benefits.
