QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Q. My father passed away four
teen years ago. My mother,
my sister and I received so
cial security checks until my
sister and I were 18. After
that my mother’s checks
stopped. Was she supposed
to have kept on receiving her
checks.
A. No. Social security checks
to a widow who is under the
age of 62 stop when her chil
dren's stop. However, if
your mother does not remarry
she will again be able to start
receiving widow’s social se
curity payments when she be
comes 62 years odd.
Q. My father will becomfe 65
years old in January of 1960.
At that time he plans to re
tire on social security. How
ever, he has heard that be
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.
Receipt of payments from the
Venera ns Administration
would not affect your father’s
social security payments.
The only type of income that
will affect social security
checks is earnings from wages
or self-employment over the
amount permitted by the so
cial security law. However,
the Veterans Administration
does have an income limita
tion and social security pay
fents are included in this in
come. Your father may ob
tain further information by 3
contacting (his nearest Veter
ane Administration ofifice.
