A person does not receive two payments.
Will there be an increase in Social Security benefits in the next two years?
There's no way to predict whether there will be an increase in Social Security benefits over the next two years. We already know 2011 checks will be paid at the same rate as in 2009, when the SSA issued a 5.8% increase. This is the first time since 1975 that rates have remained unchanged two consecutive years, so there's a good chance there will be some type of cost of living adjustment (COLA) in 2012, but this is far from a safe bet.
How do you obtain a driver's license without a Social Security number in Michigan?

Can your social security disability be frozen to pay a collection agency?

When can I expect my W2 from my Social Security?
While of course each employer has a different schedule of their own... each one must be in the mail by the end of January.
If you have not received your W-2, contact your employer to inquire if and when the W-2 was mailed. If it was mailed, it may have been returned to the employer because of an incorrect or incomplete address. After contacting the employer, allow a reasonable amount of time for them to resend or to issue the W-2.
If you do not receive your W-2 by February 16th, contact the IRS for assistance at 800-829-1040. When you call, you must provide your name, address, city and state, including zip code, Social Security number, and phone number and have the following information:
*.Employer's name, address, city and state, including zip code and phone number
*.Dates of employment
*.An estimate of the wages you earned, the federal income tax withheld, and when you worked for that employer during 2009. The estimate should be based on year-to-date information from your final pay stub or leave-and-earnings statement, if possible.

Why did President Johnson put Social Security Funds into the General Fund?
He didn't. By law, Social Security funds are deposited into the Social Security Trust Fund and cannot be deposited into the general fund.
To add to my colleague's succinct answer, here's a long version:
Workers pay into the Social Security Trust Fund through a separate tax structure, and the money collected is invested in financial markets. If the Trust Fund runs a surplus from these collections (combined with interest earned from investments), the extra money can be given to the General Fund of the Treasury, in exchange for federal government bonds. Therefore, money isn't "taken out" of the Independent Trust Fund, but loaned to the Treasury. At the end of 2010, Social Security had a $2.6 trillion dollar surplus, which given current policy, will continue to grow until the year 2022. After 2022, the fund will decline until it is exhausted in 2033.
The General Fund *cannot* be "raided" by the Treasury; the Treasury can only borrow money, which it has an obligation to pay back (plus interest). Since this borrowing happens all the time, and the borrowed money is used for a variety of purposes, one party or the other will often claim that money has been "stolen" from seniors. This actually means that the Treasury is paying for something the complaining party doesn't like. Since there's always something one party thinks shouldn't be funded, and Social Security is such a potent political issue, politicians will continue to claim that funds were stolen, even though this has never happened.

Can you receive disability from your job and disability from social security at the same time?
Yes, it is very common for disability insurance plans to include a clause for social security disability, meaning the insurance company will pay a portion of the monthly benefit, expecting that you would apply for social security benefits to pay for the "Supplemental Social Security benefits". In the event you get declined by Social Security, then the insurance company would cover the additional supplemental benefits.
Employer group plans as well as individual disability insurance plans can include that clause.

Do the Amish pay into social security?
Some taxes, they do allot to avoid paying taxes, they do pay most of same taxes that we do!
But depending on the group and the laws of their area, they can avoid paying a number taxes, most do not pay Social Security and often do not report all income.
They often use trade amongst each other for goods, which is large percentage financial transaction, that never is thus taxed.
They do use the same systems of government aid and government agencies, they use same public convinces as buss systems and parks, and it is increasing debate how much drain the Amish society is to the state and federal finances.
But there is no doubt, that the increasing medical problems among the Amish people, is putting a burden on health care system, as Amish tend to settle their bills at discount percentage of the cost.
