It depends on several factors. First of all if your entire working career has been as a teacher in one of the 14 states whose teachers do not pay into social security, then the answer would be that you would receive no social security benefit because you never paid any money into it. Now, lets say you work as a teacher for 15 years in a state whose teachers DO pay into social security, such as Pennsylvania. You then decide to work for 15 years as a teacher in Ohio whose teachers do NOT pay into social security. Once you retire, you would indeed get social security due to the fact you worked 15 years in PA and paid into SS. HOWEVER, you would take a hit (called the Windfall Provision) because you are also collecting money from Ohio's pension.

To help bring the retirement picture into better focus, try plugging all your pertinent financial information - including pensions, Social Security, retirement investment accounts and anticipated retirement expenses - into an online calculator.


Can you collect social security from PA paid while teaching there and Ohio teacher retirement money from teaching there?

Yes, you can. As you said, teachers in Ohio do NOT pay social security. Teachers in Pennsylvania DO pay social security. HOWEVER (and there is a big however), when you start to collect social security, you will take a hit from social security. This is called a Windfall Provision. Spousal benefits are also affected. With that said, PLEASE CONSULT YOUR ATTORNEY AND TAX ADVISOR. I am not an expert.
