The Claiming Age Clarity Act requires the Social Security Administration to replace specific terms in its rules, regulations, guidance, and other materials by January 1, 2027. The term "early eligibility age" will be replaced with "minimum monthly benefit age," "full retirement age" and "normal retirement age" will be replaced with "standard monthly benefit age," and "delayed retirement credit" will be omitted with references to age 70 replaced by "maximum monthly benefit age." This change aims to clarify the terminology used in social security communications.
