Social Security Report
By Lee Wallio
Field Representative
Review Your Earnings:
Residents of the
Albemarle area who receive
Social Security benefits and
also work should take some
time soon to review their
earnings for this year.
This review should be
made so Social Security
recipients will know where
they stand in relation to the
annual earnings test.
This test is the measure
used to determine the
amount of benefits that
should be paid a working
beneficiary.
In general, a person is due
all benefits for a year if his
earnings do not exceed the
annual exempt amount.
For people under age 65
all of 1981, the annual
exempt amount is $4,080.
For people age 65 and over
any part of 1981, the amount
is $5,500.
The general rule is that $1
in benefits is withheld for
each $2 of earnings above
the annual exempt amount.

A person who expects his
earnings to exceed the
annual exempt amount
should notify Social Security
so that the appropriate
amount of benefits can be
withheld.
This way, the person can
avoid the problem of having
to repay any incorrectly
paid benefits.
Remember that gross
wages, not take home pay,
count for purpose of the
annual earnings test.
