Sources Social Security Bulletin, Annual Statistical Supplement (1971), Table 76, p. 95; (1981), Table 91, pp. 160–1; (1988), Table 5.B8, p. 189; (1999), Table 5.B8, p. 209. Documentation This table provides information on the average monthly benefit received by retired workers under the Old-Age, Survivors Insurance program. Benefits payable to workers who retire at the normal retirement age, currently age 65, are equal to 100 percent of the primary insurance amount (PIA). The normal retirement age is scheduled to rise gradually from 65 to 67, with the first increase affecting workers who reach age 62 in the year 2000. Retired workers are eligible to receive benefits at a permanently reduced rate beginning at age 62. The extent of reduction depends on the number of benefit payments received for months before the normal retirement age. The annual rate of reduction amounts to 6 2 / 3 percent for each of the first three years, and eventually (after the age for full benefits is established at age 67) 5 percent for each of the next two years the worker receives benefits before the normal retirement age. Workers receiving benefits at age 62 are eligible to receive benefits equal to 80 percent of the PIA (6 2 / 3 multiplied by 3). This rate will decline to 75 and 70 percent, respectively, as the normal retirement age increases. Workers who postpone their retirement beyond the normal retirement age have their benefits increased through the delayed retirement credit for each month benefits are foregone owing to earnings above the exempt amount. Spouses of retired workers are eligible for monthly benefits at age 62. Their benefits are equal to 50 percent of the worker’s PIA for the first entitlement at the normal age but are permanently reduced if payments to the retired worker begin earlier. The annual rate of reduction is 8 2 / 3 percent for the first three years, and eventually 5 percent for the next two years the spouse receives benefits before reaching the normal retirement age. Children of retired workers are also eligible to receive monthly benefits equal to 50 percent of the worker’s PIA, as are spouses younger than age 65 who are caring for at least one child younger than age 16 or disabled child age 18 or older of the worker. For more information, see the summary of Old-Age, Survivors, and Disability Insurance benefit types and levels (Social Security Bulletin, Annual Statistical Supplement, 1997, p. 59). The OASI tables do not include a number of persons receiving Railroad Retirement benefits who would be eligible for Social Security benefits had they applied. Series Bf478 and Bf482. These series are believed to show what the worker would have earned upon retirement at age 65 if they had not retired early. The series were no longer reported in the annual statistical supplements after 1979.
