What age can you claim full Social Security benefits? Change applies to anyone born after 1960

From the inception of Social Security in 1935 until the Social Security Amendments of 1983 were passed, the FRA was established at 65. Current regulations regarding the age at which individuals can claim full Social Security benefits now apply specifically to anyone born after 1960. These legislative changes shifted the requirements for receiving full benefits, moving away from the original 65-year threshold that remained constant for several decades following the program's initial creation.
