Current Benefit Deductions
If Working
q—i am a widower and I’ve
been retired by my company
this year. I get $l2O a month
from social security. Recently,
my former employer called me
about part-time work at S2OO per
month for all of next year. Can
I get any benefits next year
while I’m earning $2400?
A—Yes, you would be entitled
to receive $490 in social security
benefits. If you didn’t work, you
would get $1440. While working
you lose $1 in benefits for every
$2 you earn above SI2OO and
under SI7OO. For every $1 you
earn over SI7OO you lose $1 of
benefits. In your case, you lose
$950 in benefits for your $2400
earnings, leaving you $490 in
benefits.
Q —l was 72 years old in May
c. i£st year and I earned S2OOO
i wages. I reported these wag
e. to the Social Security Ad
r. ; istration early this year. I
v.i 1 also earn about S2OOO this
}, „r in wages. Do I have to re-
I . t these earnings to social se
c.iity at the end of this year?
A—You need' not report your
earnings for this year since you
were over 72 in all months of
the year. You can receive all
your benefits, regardless of your
earnings, beginning with the
month in which you reach 72.
Q—-I retired last year and be
gan getting my monthly social
security checks. This year I ac
cepted a joD as City Parks Su
perintendent at a yearly salary
of S4OOO. Since I am working,
do I have to notify the social se
curity office to stop my checks?
A—You must report your work
at once to social security. You
can do this by filling out and
mailing a post card form, OA-
C 669. You probably were given
this form when you applied for
benefits. If you can't find it,
visit your social security office
to complete the form.
Q —l will be 65 in September,
and my employer wants me to
keep working on a part-time
basis at $l5O a month. If I ac
cept this job, will I be able to
get social security benefits at the
same time?
A —You might not be entitled
to any social security benefits
this year, but you may be en
titled to benefits for some
months next year. You should
visit your social security office
as soon as possible, and they
will help you determine what
benefits you would be able to
receive.
Q —l have been receiving some
monthly social security benefits
for the past five years. Last
year I earned SIBOO and reported
this to the social security office.
I also told them that I would
ean about SIBOO this year; how
ever, I was laid off in June and
I don’t expect to work any more
this year. I earned about SBOO
this year before I was laid off.
Should I report this to the social
security office?
A—Yes, you should notify
your nearest social security of
fice. Explain that you want to
revise your estimate of earnings
for this year.
Q—l will soon be 65 years old,
and our company retires its em

ployees on the last day of the
month in which they become 65. I
I plan to find some work on a
part-time basis. I have heard so J 1
many stories as to how much I
can earn and still get monthly
benefits that I do not have any
idea of what I can get. How can ,
1 find out.
A—You can write the social
security office and ask for pam
phlet OASI-23 which tells about
receiving monthly benefits while
you work. If possible, you should
visit the office and ask them to
give you details.
Q —i am 66 years old and a
construction worker. I earn over
$7,000 a year. Someone told me
that I could still get some social
security benefits if I did not
work in some of .the winter
months? Is this true?
A—Yes, regardless of how
much you earn you can receive
your monthly benefit for months
in which you earn no more than
SIOO in wages and do not active
ly engage in self employment.
Q —i will be 72 years old in
October and I’ve been receiving
some monthly benefits each year.
In the past, I have always had
to make an estimate of my earn
ings at the end of the year if
I made over SI2OO. This year I
will earn about SI4OO, but since
I will be 72 this year, do I still
have to report my earnings?
A—Yes, you are required to
report your earnings after the
close of the year, even though
you are 72 years old, in order
that the Social Security Ad
ministration can determine if you
are eligible for any benefits for
the months before you were 72.
Q—When I applied for month
ly benefits earlier this. year, I
estimated my total earnings for
1962 to be $2150. I just got a
! rise in salary and I wonder if
I should change my estimate?
A —Any time you feel that
your estimated earnings for this
year will change, you should re
port it to the Social Security
Administration and give them:
your new estimate.
Q—ls my estimated earnings
.for this year are $2500, and I am
laid off work before I earn that
amount, what should I do?
A—Report to the Social Se
curity Administration that you
are no longer working and give
them your new estimate of earn
ings.
Q —l estimated my earnings
this year to be SI6OO. If I get
a S2OO bonus at the end of this
year, what effect will it have
on my payments?
A—The bonus you receive will
cause an overpayment of bene
fits unless you report it prompt
! ly. It’s important that you re
port getting this bonus and re
vise your estimate as soon as
possible to avoid any large over-
I payment.
Q —l did not expect to earn
over SI2OO this year. But a good
job has been offered to me
which would make my earnings 1
j over SI2OO. Do I have to turn
I the job down since I reported
j that I would not earn over SI2OO.
A—Whether you take the job
or not is entirely up to you.
j You can always report a new
| estimate to the Social Security
; Administration if you expect
your earnings to change.
Q —l estimated my earnings
for 1962 at S6OO. I expect to d->
some part time work now and

“We can’t,” replied the boy . . .
“we have our braces hooked!”

This question has received the
attention of mankind through
the centuries and is currently
the query of our wistful and
troubled generation. What do
we mean by eternal life? Where
does it begin? What difference
does it make? Does our belief
in eternal life have any' rela
tionship to our daily living?
These questions are being asked
by thinking people today. The
answer lies in two areas of life
we are now living it—our
daily living, for one, and, sec
ondly, in relation to those per
sons who are dear to us. How
do we feel when we are sep
arated from a loved one by
death? Death has a finality that
severs our most intimate ties
forever unless eternal life is
true. And what, ground- do we
have for. our belief? What as
surance do we have of eternal
life?
For our assurance of eternal
life we must turn to the New
Testament. Our central ques
tion is, What is the New Testa-
