How much does ten years of work...?

Question

My dad is now a citizen of the US and wants to move back to his home country in about 2-3 years. They recognized he had worked in this country for 10 years now. He is 47 now. How old do you have to be to get pensioned and how much do you think the pension would give him each week/month??

Answer 1

Not much and not till 60 or 65

Answer 2

65 if he wants the entire amount.   The SS department should be sending him statements.   Educated guess is about 400-450 a month, but the social security department can give him the exact amount, down to the penny.
