    Surely depends which country you are in.
    This board should indicate country on user's profile.
    In the US social security takes over when you are 62 (early retirement) or 67 years old and have worked and contributed part of your earnings to the social security system.

    Depending on how many years you worked and how much you contributed (how much was deducted from your gross salary) will be figured into what you will be paid each month.
    I expect you mean age wise, for a woman 55 yrs and for a Man 65 yrs
