SECURITY
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Q. — My father passed away
fourteen years ago. My mother,
my sister and I received social se
curity checks until my sister and
I were 18. After that my mothers
checks stopped. Was she supposed
to have kept on receiving checks?
A.—No. Social Security checks
to a widow who is under the age
of 62 stop when her children’s
checks stop. However, if your
mother does not remarry, she will
again be able to start receiving
widow’s social security payments
when she becomes 62 years old.
Q.—My father will become 65
years old this year. At that time
he plans to retire on Social Se
curity. However, he has heard
that he will not be able to draw
his full Social Security if he ap
plies for his World War I Vet
erans Pension. Could you clarify
this?
A.—.Receipt of payments from
the V e t e r a ns Administration
would not affect your father’s
Social Security payments. The
only type of income that will af
fect Social Security checks is
earnings from wages or self-em
ployment over the amount per
mitted by the Social Security
law. However, the Veterans Ad
ministration DOES have an in
come limitation and Social Se
curity payments are included in
this income. Your father may ob
tain further information by con
tacting his nearest Veterans Ad
ministration office.
