Age by birth year
Here are four questions about being born in 1990, answered.
How old am I if I was born in 1990?
In 2026 you are 36 if your birthday has already passed this year and 35 if it has not. Today is Tuesday, November 3, 2026, counted in US Eastern time, so a birthday on or before November 3 has passed (you are 36) and one from November 4 on is still to come (you are 35).
How old will I be on December 31, 2026 if I was born in 1990?
You will be 36. Every birthday of 2026 has happened by December 31, so everyone born in 1990 is 36 on the last day of 2026, and 37 on December 31, 2027.
What year was I born if I am 36 in 2026?
You were born in 1990 if your birthday has already passed this year, or in 1989 if it has not come round yet. 2026 minus 1990 is 36, and someone born in 1989 is still 36 until their birthday this year.

The SSA table gives a full retirement age of 67 for people born in 1990, which you reach in 2057. The earliest age retirement benefits can start is 62, which you reach in 2052.
