SOCIAL SECURITY
Questions And
Answers
By
NORRIS G. GRUBBS
Field Representative
Q. I will be 62 years old in
December, and I’ve heard that
I should sign up for my Social
Security several months early,
so please send me information
on how to apply.
A. It is best to get an ear
ly start, but you have time
yet before you file your ap
plication. Generally speaking,
it is not possible to file an
application more than three
moths before your birthday.
We do recommend however,
that a claim be filed in the
third month, or the second
month before your birthday
so that it can be fully pro
cessed by the time you reach
retirement age. In your case,
we suggest that you contact
us in September. We will dis
cuss your case with you and
tell you what forms and
proofs you will need. If
necessary, we can assist you
in obtaining needed docu
ments. If you have a tele
phone, or have one available
nearby, call us. We can prob
ably handle the entire mat

Why is it that many babies
learn to walk in a new pair
of shoes?
The most probable reason
is that the old shoes were
too small. If you will notice,
babies use their little toes
for balance. When they
walk in their bare feet or in
socks, the little toe of the
right foot points to two
o’clock while the others point
to twelve. After the babies
learn balance, the little toes
become less and less import
ant and close in with the
other toes, so they can wear
shoes in adult life that do
not look like fins.
There must J»_ room
enough in baby’s shoes for
the toes to fan out for prop
er balancet, which alone will
give baby the courage to try
to walk.

Q. My employer takes over
5% out of my pay for Social
Security taxes! This can’t be
right. I remember when the
tax was only 1%. Am I paying
my employers share also?
A. No, your employer isn’t,
taking the entire Social Secur
ity tax out of your pay. The
tax rate is now 10.4%: 5.2%
from your pay and 5.2% ad
ded by your employer. And
if this seenjp high when com
pared to the total tax of 2%
(1% each from you and your
employer when Social Secur
ity started in the late 1930's,
remember the monthly bene
fit amounts payable then ran
from $10 a month to $85 a
month, and the low original
ly covered the worker only—
not his family. Over the
years the benefits amounts
have been increased, and
coverages extended, so that
for your present 5.2% you
can receive monthly benefits
(at age 65) ranging from
$70.40 to $275, reduced bene
fits at age 62, Medicare, and
wide range of benefits for
your family. Social Security
benefits are paid as an earn
ed right; you and your em
ployer have paid for them.
Thus, when benefits are in
creased or more family pro
tection is added the tax must
go up to pay for these
changes.
Q. Please let me know if
you are open on Saturdays. I
work during the week but need
to see you about a matter.
A. No, our office is not
open on Saturdays. However,
almost all matters can be
handled by telephone. Per
haps you could call us dur
ing your lunch hour. We
realize that working people as
well as retired people have
business with us, and we will
see to it that everything pos
sible is done to handle your
business in a manner con
venient to you.
