Do I Have To Continue Working Between My FRA And Age 70 To Be Eligible For Delayed Retirement Credits?

Do I have to continue working between my FRA and my 70 DOB to be eligible for Delayed Retirement Credits? Thanks!

Hi,

No. You can accrue delayed retirement credits (DRC) from full retirement age (FRA) until age 70 whether you are working during that time or not.

Best, Jerry
