Mejor: "¿Estás jubilado ahora?" o, mucho mejor: "¿Ya estás jubilado?" o "¿Ya te has jubilado?".

"¿Te has jubilado ya?" is correct. It is reflexive in my mind because one usually retires from his work voluntarily. "¿Estás jubilado ya?" also makes sense. The way it's written, "¿Has estado jubilado ya?", seems to me that one is trying to say, "Have you been retired now?" This is as if someone forced the person to leave his work permanently. But, in that case I would say, "¿Te han jubilado ya?" o "¿Se te jubilaron ya?"

Don Bigote, in England we're now not to retire until we're 67, at the earliest. Then we're encouraged to die as cheaply as possible. - annierats, Feb 27, 2012
It's the bosses who decide..As ever. - annierats, Feb 27, 2012
We also retire at 67 , then we are only given 33 years on the pension we then have to go back to work and start all over again. - ray76, Feb 27, 2012
