Social Security

This question is an important one because many people living in retirement communities either need to or want to work in retirement. This question pertains to what is called the earning test. If you are under Full Retirement Age (FRA) when you start getting your Social Security payments (for example, you start taking benefits at 62), $1 in benefits will be deducted for each $2 you earn above the annual limit. For 2012 that limit is $14,640. In the year you reach your full retirement age (66 for baby boomers) $1 in benefits will be deducted for each $3 you earn above a different limit, but only counting earnings before the month you reach FRA. For 2012, this limit is $38,880; for 2007. There is NO limit on your earnings starting with the month you reach full retirement age.

The Social Security Administration issues Social Security numbers.

yes. Social Securuty disability is based upon the fact that a person cannot work due to a disability. The amount the person collects from Social Security will be based upon their prior work history: how long they worked and at what pay.

You can use your SSDI (Social Security Disability) payments any way you want

such as for paying a rent or mortgage, food, clothes, and also a car. It would simply be up to you to budget the amount you get with your expenses.

Normally you will not get lump sums unless there is a good reason. Keep in mind your Medicare coverage, unless the ObamaCare has changed this, wont even start untill you have been on the SSDI for two years. You will still have some expenses with Medicare for example if you pay for Medicare B (which most people will definitely need), Medicare B will only pay 80 percent. So you will be left paying the 20 percent unless you also have your state medicaid in which case usually the medicaid will pick most or all of it up. You will need to budget carefully as to where you live, how expensive your house or apartment is, your utilities, your food, your clothing, etc as well as a car or other type of transportation. Something to keep in mind: if you qualify for your state's medicaid (normally an income question) you may be eligible for transportation, however that transportation will probably be limited to a certain amount of times a month and will only as far as I know, be good to get to your doctor appointments. If you cannot walk to work and elsewhere or take a bus,

or a taxi, you will probably need a car.. You are not limited to how you spend your check but you do have to budget and use wisdom so you won't find yourself in a pickle.

Yes, you can, but if you took early retirement you will have to pay back all the benefits you received before the Social Security Administration will starting counting earned income toward future increased benefits. Otherwise, your cash benefits are frozen, except for periodic cost of living adjustments (COLA), at the rate set when you originally filed for retirement.

On the plus side, if you're still below full retirement age, suspending benefits will stop you from being penalized by annual earning limits. Once your reach your full retirement age (65 for people born before 1943; 66 for people born between 1943-1954), the earning cap is removed permanently.

Social Security benefits are usually paid out at a set age. You may also receive social security for a spouse if they pass away or for a child if their parent passes away before they are 18 years old.

The vote in the Senate took place on June 19, 1935. There were 77 votes for the bill, 6 against the bill, and 12 votes were not placed. It was a bipartisan piece of legislation, with the vast majority of both Democrats and Republicans voting in favor of it.

There are many problems in the world around us. Rape, domestic violence, child abuse, and drug and alcohol abuse....... If someone does not step up to change it, no one will.

---(Response) OK, but did you know that social workers must have graduate degrees plus 3 years of clinical experience to receive licensure? That's about as much training as a medical doctor.... and 5 years more than your average public school teacher, and yet we get paid an average of $15,000/yr less than teachers. Weird, huh?

Answer:

Another view: I am a social worker, and certainly people in my profession are interested in "stepping up", as the above contributor explains. In my own experience, I have found that while social workers are usually good at advocating for the rights of others, we tend not to be as good at advocating for ourselves as a profession.

Answer:

Ok, so everyone agrees that social workers have perhaps been too willing to accept low pay over the years, but how can we change that? We need to do something about this and we need to do it as a group....

I am a social worker w/ a Master's and Bachelor's from an Ivy League. I was just offered my first graduate-level position for a salary higher than the going rate for social workers in my city, yet $15,000 less than my husband's entry level salary as a Bachelor's level teacher in a public school. On top of that, I just found out that one of my clients is getting a higher salary than me in his "supported employment" position as a newspaper delivery person.

It completely defies logic that graduate level professionals would get paid so little, and I don't think any other profession would stand for this.... so why do we? I would have tried to negotiate up my salary, but I was afraid that they would just move on to the dozens of other social workers willing to work for virtually nothing. If we don't take action as a group, we have no chance of changing anything.

I am just entering the field as an LLMSW and I am very concerned about why we have accepted this for so long. I am also concerned about being taken advantage of as an LLMSW, even in the profession where people are supposed to be concious and mindful of these power dynamics and are suppesd to not take advantage of those who are more vulnerable. We are supposed to be able to advocate for others and we also know that we need to take care of our needs in order to be good social workers. We also know that this is one of the reasons for high burnout. Why have our leaders not stepped up? I am asking that we challenge NASW to do more. If the NASW (2010), "works to enhance the professional growth and development of its members, to create and maintain professional standards, and to advance sound social policies," then why are they not advocating for our needs so that we may continue working in our chosen field without as much fear and shame of our salaries!

Dashain is mainly celebrate by Hindus. It is a festival were you get money from the elder ones. In this day people wear new clothes even though they are poor. They eat meat and lots of food which is good for their health. some people even do fasting in this day.(only women)

Social Security became a formal program in 1935. The Civil War Pension program was a pioneer with the first legislation in 1862 providing for benefits linked to disabilities "incurred as a direct consequence of . . .military duty."

Yes if you choose to start collecting SSB at age 63 before you reach your normal retirement age (NRA) then your earnings each year will be subject to the earnings test each year until the year that you reach your NRA or full retirement age (FRA).

For 2010 the earnings test amount is 14160.

If you and your ex husband were married for at least 10 years, and if you are the required age to received Social Security benefits, then yes, you are. You can only draw SS from one source, be it his, yours, or your second husband's (if you have been married at least 10 years). But you can file on the one that will pay the most.

The 2010 cap is the same as in 2009, $106,800.00, at which point the Social Security amount withheld would be $6,621.60 (6.2%).

There is no cap on the Medicare insurance contribution, so the 1.45% amount will continue to be withheld on all earnings, and will be matched by your employer at the 1.45% rate for a total 3.90% for the year.

Your state's laws and how the unemployment agency determines your specific eligibility will vary, however, typically, to qualify for unemployment you must be "ready, willing and able to work."

No. If a creditor other than the federal government tries to garnish your Social Security benefits, inform them that such an action violates Section 207 of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 407).

If you remain unmarried you will be able to collect on your ex husband's social security. This becomes null and void if you remarry however. A case worker from the Social Security Administration will help you with the paperwork.

The federal retirement plan enacted by Congress in 1935. The original purpose (unchanged today) of the Act was to adopt a system that required the current working generation to contribute to the support of older, retired workers. The Act was passed in response to old-age dependency resulting from Depression-generated phenomena.
