What info do I need to calculate my benefits when affected by GPO?
are you estimating your your future spouse 's , widow 's , or widower 's benefits under the GPO?
Yes I am
You will need two things: The estimated " gross " monthly amount of your pension from your government job not covered by Social Security . and The estimated monthly amount of your Social Security benefit as a spouse , widow , or widower before the effect of GPO .
