Default Do you have to?

Do you have to apply for SSI if you retire. Say you retire at 60 but you don't want to file for SSI until you are older because you will get more. Is that alright in the eyes of the government?

I believe it's fine. You can apply when you are ready. I do believe that the amount of money you get goes by the amount you make each year. You would want to check to make sure that you are not being hurt by not applying and not working.
