t& QUESTIONS
AND ANSWERS
QUESTION: I am drawing
Social Security benefits. If I
earn over $1200 a year, what
must I do?
ANSWER: First, you should
report to the Social Security
administration as soon as you
are reasonably sure you will
earn over $1200. Second, you
must file an annual report of
your earnings within 3 months
and 15 days after the close of
your taxable year. For most
people this taxable year coin
cides with the calendar year,
which means that you have un
til April 15 to file the annual
report.
QUESTION: Please answer a
question for me. I'm a widow
and I’ll reach the age of 62 in
April of next year. My total
income is two pensions I re
ceive—both from the govern
ment. One is $48.90 a month
and the other is $75 a month.
Would I still be able to receive
social security on my hus
band’s earnings or am I al
ready getting too much from
the government?
ANSWER: The amount of
money you may be receiving
from other private or public
pension programs will have no
affect at all on your Social Se
curity. The only thing that will
affect social security is actual
earnings—either from wages or
from self-employment. Pen
sions are not considered “earn
ings”. But sometimes social se
curity may have some effect on
the other pensions you might
be receiving—so we would sug
gest that at the time you file
for social security, you notify
the other sources of pension in
come to see if any adjustments
must be made.

Social Security: Write to So
cial Security Administration,
Box 1331, Juneau, Alaska.
