I would like to know the maximum allowable earnings while collecting social security retirement benefits?

1. It depends on your age. You can find all the particulars at www.ssa.gov.
2. Depends on your age. If you have not reached your normal retirement age, then you lose $1 in SS benefits for every $2 earned over $14,160. If you have reached the year of normal retirement age (i.e., if NRA is 66 and you were born in August and you will turn 66 this year, you are in the year of your NRA), then you lose $1 for each $3 earned over $37,680. If you have reached NRA, then you can earn as much as you want. See the link below for more info
