Here are four questions about being born in 1962, answered.
- How old am I if I was born in 1962?
- In 2026 you are 64 if your birthday has already passed this year and 63 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 64) and one from October 27 on is still to come (you are 63).
- How old will I be on December 31, 2026 if I was born in 1962?
- You will be 64. Every birthday of 2026 has happened by December 31, so everyone born in 1962 is 64 on the last day of 2026, and 65 on December 31, 2027.
- What year was I born if I am 64 in 2026?
- You were born in 1962 if your birthday has already passed this year, or in 1961 if it has not come round yet. 2026 minus 1962 is 64, and someone born in 1961 is still 64 until their birthday this year.
- When can I get full Social Security retirement benefits if I was born in 1962?
- The SSA table gives a full retirement age of 67 for people born in 1962, which you reach in 2029. The earliest age retirement benefits can start is 62, which you reach in 2024.
