I recently become a US citizen. I am 66 years old and worked in the US for the past 2 years.
Can I get any Social Security benefits ?
Due to health issue, I can’t see myself working full time for 8 more years.
The social security web site state:
"Everyone born in 1929 or later needs 40 Social Security credits to be eligible for retirement benefits. You can earn up to four credits per year, so you will need at least 10 years to become eligible for retirement benefits. If you become disabled or die before age 62, the number of credits needed depends on your age at the time you die or become disabled. A minimum of 6 credits is required regardless of your age. You can file for retirement benefits online. “
I am just not clear if I can get any help.
Thanks for your help.
