Many people pick up side jobs when the holiday shopping season comes around. It’s a good way for you to make some extra income during the busy season. Or you can ease back into work if you have been out of the labor force for a while. We’re here to help you navigate seasonal employment if you get Social Security.
You can get Social Security retirement or survivors benefits and work at the same time. But if you’re younger than full retirement age and earn more than certain amounts, your benefits will be reduced, although not dollar for dollar. Your benefits could increase when you reach full retirement age. You can read more about employment while retired at www.socialsecurity.gov/planners/retire/whileworking.html.
