il Oi* t Mi SOCIAL SECURITY “I can't believe it." exclaimed a young veterans widow, “I hail no idea at all that Tom's Air Force time would count for Social Security." Her husband had died In a tra ffic automobile accident, and she was lust learning about the spe cial social security coverage for . servicemen and women. Starting in January, 1957. the Military Services began withhold ing FICA taxes as is done in reg ular industrial employment, and servicemen began building up so cial security credits towards their retirement and for disability and survivors protection. Their ser vice pay counted towards social sei-urity just lik< the wages of an employee working in private in i dustry. Before 1957. social security ere. dits for servicemen were differ ent. From September 1JM0 through December 1956 service-! men did not have FICA taxes I HEY KIDS'!

Social security could use these use these fr?e credits for retire ment, disability or survivor's pnv tection. There are some instances where it is advantageous for these credits to be used under another retirement system and, social security does not use the iredits in these situations, but beginning with active Military Service after Deicmber 31, 1950, these free credits can always be used by social security if the ser viceman was a career man and served honorably on active duty after December 31, 1966. Social Security was able to tell this widow that she would receive $X4.70 for herself and $H4. 70 each for her 2 young sons, to gether with a lump sum death payment of $256.00.

This is written for the benefit of anyone who may be asked to ■-ash a social security check or who will want to use one of these checks. It is hoped you will read, and follow this advice. It may save you money or embarrass ment depending on which side of the counter you are on. Basically, it is felt most people are honest but with the increase-? in the amounts of social security chocks over the past few years, there are a few who will trv to get money illegally. These few people are the ones the social se curity office Is writing about. It is hoped the person accept ing the check will know the in dividual or be certain he has proper identification. If you ac cept a check you are the one who stands to lose if the person pre senting the check is not legally capable of cashing the check. When the person is caught you still mav not rw-over your money and think of the time you can spend in settling the problem! For this reason you should re quire proper identification before turning over your money t o someone with a check. Possession, it is said, is nine-tenths of the law. however, that tenth may cost you money! In other words possession does not necessarilv mean the chock belongs to that individual. Checks carry instructions for making payment. In the situa tion where it- is signed by mark the instructions clearly state that 2 witnesses must sign in your presence. When you present a check for payment be sure you have proper identification. (A so cial security card will not serve this purpose.)
