Here are four questions about being born in 1957, answered.
- How old am I if I was born in 1957?
- In 2026 you are 69 if your birthday has already passed this year and 68 if it has not. Today is Monday, October 26, 2026, counted in US Eastern time, so a birthday on or before October 26 has passed (you are 69) and one from October 27 on is still to come (you are 68).
- How old will I be on December 31, 2026 if I was born in 1957?
- You will be 69. Every birthday of 2026 has happened by December 31, so everyone born in 1957 is 69 on the last day of 2026, and 70 on December 31, 2027.
- What year was I born if I am 69 in 2026?
- You were born in 1957 if your birthday has already passed this year, or in 1956 if it has not come round yet. 2026 minus 1957 is 69, and someone born in 1956 is still 69 until their birthday this year.
- When can I get full Social Security retirement benefits if I was born in 1957?
- The SSA table gives a full retirement age of 66 and 6 months for people born in 1957, which you reach in 2023 or 2024. The earliest age retirement benefits can start is 62, which you reach in 2019.
