A. Yes, but only once. Social Security will allow you to withdraw your application for retirement and repay the benefits within your first 12 months of eligibility.
If you are over full retirement age, you can ask the program to suspend your payment. If you temporarily stop your retirement benefit between full retirement age and age 70, you will get a higher amount when you start collecting again.
Q4. If I start taking benefits at age 62, can I switch to spousal benefits when my husband claims his social security benefits?
A. Yes, you can claim your own benefit at age 62, then pick up a spouse's benefit on your husband's record later if it is higher.
When your husband files for his retirement funds, you will be eligible for an additional benefit on his record if your full retirement age amount is less than half of his.
