You must be insured under the Social Security program before retirement,
survivors, or disability benefits can be paid to you or your family. We
consider the number of <a href="../COLA/QC.html">quarters of coverage</a> you
earned to determine if you are insured. You earn a quarter of coverage
(QC)&#8212;also called a "credit"&#8212;for a certain amount of work covered
under Social Security, but <i>you may earn no more than 4 QCs per year</i>.
Generally you need to be fully insured to receive Social Security benefits,
but other requirements may also apply.</p>

<div class="column-9 border-bottom ">
<div class="pad-top ">
<p><b>Fully Insured</b><br />
To be fully insured, you need at least one QC for each
calendar year after you turned 21 and the earliest of the following:
<ol>
<li> the year before you attain age 62,</li>
<li> the year before you die, or</li>
<li> the year before you become disabled.</li>
</ol>
<small>Exceptions: If you were born before 1930, you need at least one QC
for each year after 1950. Other exceptions may apply.</small></p>
<p>
The minimum number of QCs needed is 6. The maximum number needed is 40.
Any year (all or part of a year) that was included in a period of disability
is <i>not</i> included in determining the number of QCs you need.</p>
<p><b>Permanently Insured</b><br />
You are permanently insured if you are fully insured
<i>and</i> you will not lose your fully-insured status when
you stop working under covered employment.</p>
<p>
Examples<ul>
<li> You have earned the maximum 40 QCs, so you are permanently
(and fully) insured.
<li> You were born in 1949 and worked under covered employment in 1971-77,
earning a total of 28 QCs. You attained age 21 in 1970. You were
fully insured after you earned 6 QCs and you continued to be fully
