No matter what your age is, if you are working you will still have to have tax withheld for Social Security and Medicare -- even if you are receiving Social Security benefits.
People get very confused about this. If you are not yet at full retirement age, then your SS benefits can be reduced if you continue to work and earn above a certain amount. For 2025, that amount is $23,400. If you are at or past full retirement age, your benefits are not reduced by your earnings, but you will still always have to pay in to Social Security and Medicare if you are working.
