    Officially 67yo to get full SSI benefits from the US govt now.

    Your statement is factual, but the context sounds like its new info or a change when it isn’t. This was set into law in 1983 and the only recent increase for full retirement benefits is a retirement delayed by 2 months as planned for 2025 (again as part of the 1983 legislation).

    Were you unaware that this was decided this way 41 years ago?
