PAGE 6 I THE YANCEY JOURNAL JUNE 17, 1976 ' -*• * S "> % ‘ o•i • j a Social Security Answers 'Q. I'm thinking about having my monthly social security check sent directly to my bank for deposit to jny account. Will social security send me a notice every month showing that my check has gone to the bank...or will the bank send me a receipt for each check? A. Social security will not send confirmation of pay ment. However, many financ ial organizations are mailing receipts for deposit of social security checks, and some are guaranteeing deposit on the 3rd of every month automati cally. You should check with your bank to find out how they are handling direct deposit of social security checks. Q. From some pamphlets I received from social security, 1 was able to figure approxi mately the amount of the mdhthly social security pay ments I’ll get when I retire at 62. I’m only 56 now. Is there any possibility this amount could change? ISFPTIC TANKS DITCHING - RESERVOIRS. B Cooper & Byrd Ditching Service Phone <*2-2436 * ou,c Bo * 252 Burnsville. .

Yes, the amount you arrived at is probably based on the earnings now credited to your social security record and is only, an estimate. Any additional earnings you have could increase the amount of* your monthly social security payments. Also, the law now provides for automatic in creases in social security benefits as the cost of living rises. So yoU. see the exact amount of your monthly checks can’t be figured until you actually apply for monthly retirement payments when you reach 62. Q. My father has been living and working in this country’for the past 30 years, but nbmever became a citizen. He’s JJyays worked in a job covered by social security. When he’s eligible for retire ment payments, will he be able to get them even though he’s not a citizen of this country? A. Yes, your father will be able to get monthly social security retirement checks if he worked long enough under social security, even though he’s not a United States citizen. * ~t. , Q. My mother, who’s 63, was recently- widowed. I thought widows got monthly social security payments equal to the full benefits their husbands would have receiv ed, but my mother’s monthly checks are less than what my father’s full benefits would have been. Can you explain this? A. Yes, indeed. Only women who first become entitled to social security widow’s benefits when they are 65 or older get monthly payments equal to the full amount their husbands would have received at 65. Since your mother is only 63, she’s getting reduced payments. Q. My father and mother have a very small income and practically no resources. My father is 66 and my mother is 63.

Your father may be abie to get monthly supple mental security income pay ments, but not your mother unless she’s disabled or blind. Supplemental security income is for people 65 or over, or blind, or disabled, who have little or no income or resources. If you think your father may be eligible for these payments, you should tell him to apply at any social security office. Q. I just started my first job in a beauty parlor. When I was hired, the manager told me that I’ll get extra social security credit for any tips I get. Will you explain just how this works? A. If your tips from your job in the beauty parlor come to S2O or more, in cash, in one month, you should report them for social security credit. Before the 10th of the following month, you should give your boss a written report of your tips and pay the social security contributions on them. This could mean higher monthly payments for you when you’re eligible for social security benefits. RABBIT The[ Cadillac Os 3maN Cars At A L6 w Price! 39 mpg Iftvy J 25 mpg.
