## People born in 1982 are Millennials, which Pew Research Center dates from 1981 to 1996.

1982 is the 2nd of the 16 birth years in that span. The range comes from [Pew Research Center](https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2019/01/17/where-millennials-end-and-generation-z-begins/).

_Figure: The birth years 1930 to 2025 in five bands: before 1946, Baby Boomers 1946 to 1964, Generation X 1965 to 1980, Millennials 1981 to 1996, and Generation Z from 1997. 1982 is marked in the Millennials band._

## Here are the years in which someone born in 1982 reaches each milestone age.

A birthday in 1982 plus the age gives the year, and the birthday itself decides whether it is the earlier or the later of two years where the table shows both.

## Here are four questions about being born in 1982, answered.

How old am I if I was born in 1982?

In 2026 you are 44 if your birthday has already passed this year and 43 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 44) and one from October 27 on is still to come (you are 43).

How old will I be on December 31, 2026 if I was born in 1982?

You will be 44. Every birthday of 2026 has happened by December 31, so everyone born in 1982 is 44 on the last day of 2026, and 45 on December 31, 2027.

What year was I born if I am 44 in 2026?

You were born in 1982 if your birthday has already passed this year, or in 1981 if it has not come round yet. 2026 minus 1982 is 44, and someone born in 1981 is still 44 until their birthday this year.

When can I get full Social Security retirement benefits if I was born in 1982?

The SSA table gives a full retirement age of 67 for people born in 1982, which you reach in 2049. The earliest age retirement benefits can start is 62, which you reach in 2044.
