Can My Social Security Be Reduced If I Receive A Hungarian Pension?
Can be my social security reduced since i receive Hungarian pension. I'm 66 years old and collect social security since age 63.
Hi,
Yes, your Social Security retirement benefit rate may be reduced if you receive a Hungarian pension based on your work and earnings in that country. For more information on this provision (i.e. WEP), refer to Social Security's website: https://www.ssa.gov/pubs/EN-05-10045.pdf.
Best, Jerry
