Answer:

The correct answer is A. All people over age 67 and their spouses are all recipients of Social Security.

Step-by-step explanation:

Social Security refers to the government pension system in the United States. It is organized by the Social Security Administration (SSA).

The normal retirement age under social security for men and women is 65 to 67 years, depending on the year of birth. The flexible age limit for women aged 62 and over has existed since 1956 and for men since 1961. The majority of citizens today take advantage of the early retirement pension, which is associated with a reduction in the normal retirement pension of around 5–6% per year. Accordingly, the pensioner can also postpone his application up to the age of 70 in order to claim approximately the same annual surcharge. The basic entitlement depends on the payments and the years. Payments for a year count as full if they reach the respective percentage of the contribution ceiling for the year. A minimum contribution period of 5 years is a prerequisite.
