   A tax person told my mother that she should be drawing more monthly SS benefits from half of my father’s benefit amount. Is that true? Can that be done?

   Keep up the great work…….

   I have a question concerning Workmans compensation and Social Security Retirement Benefits. I’ve read articles saying in 2006 congress passed new legislation that exempts SSR benefits from Workmans compensation offset, and the offset only applies to Social Security Disability insurance. Can you tell me if this is correct? Where can I find this information in the SS hand book? I’m only concerned with the SS Act of 2006 and how it applies in 2018.
   Thank you for any help you can provide!

   I wanted to log in to my social security account. The site gave me a code.
   I read the code and went back to my SS account to put in the code. The system asked me for a code again.
   Now I have about 5 codes but I still not able to log in to my account. This whole thing is good to kill people early that they won’t be able to collect SS checks.

   Hello,

   I recently received two letters from Social Security dated October 18, 2016 & October 26, 2016. (1) The letter dated October 18 stated that I was paid too much in benefits ($384) for the year of 2014 based on my earnings from the month of January $16,299. Based on my calculation, I earned an excess of $819/year. I believe the correct amount based on the earning limit for 2014 of $15,480. (2) I was also informed in the letter from October 18, 2016 that Social Security had changed the date of entitlement from February, the date I had applied for to January based on my earnings(?). But my benefits were withheld due to my work earnings(?). (3) I received a follow-up letter on October 26, 2016 informing me that my monthly benefit amount was changed to a lower amount – obviously as a result of the increased number of months (i.e. 32 mo to 33 mo), and change that was made as to my first entitlement date (i.e. Move from Feb to Jan). I did visit my local Social Security office and while they were very helpful, they could not assure me as to why my entitlement date was changed and/or of I would receive a check as a result of the change. They also agreed that the amount of the overpayment ($384) was incorrect, but no action was taken. I also followed up with a call to national Social Security line, but they could not tell me anything specific about my account. Please advise and let me know who I can speak to address these concerns.

   I carried my husband (self-employed) on my employer provided insurance beginning 1987. When he began drawing retirement benefits, he was provided with Medicare part A, but did not elect part B because we had alternate coverage. In the ensuing years, we were consistently assured this was not a problem insofar as the coverage we had was considered “comparable coverage” for Medicare. Recently, a change was made by my carrier which requires the part B coverage for all participants in the plan. It was during the process of attempting to sign up for part B coverage through my local SSA office that I was informed that at the point I retired (7 yrs ago) my coverage was no longer considered “comparable”. The upshot to this from SSA is that even though it was never communicated that my retirement nullified my plan as “comparable”, and despite continued assurances from people who were supposed to know this stuff that everything was fine, penalties will be assessed for the 7 yr gap when I retired, which will, of course go forward forever, and, application cannot even be made until January, with part B coverage not in force until July. Obviously, had anyone anywhere along the line bothered to mention this, I would have made totally different choices, or, at the least, could have made an informed decision. So, I’m sharing this very disappointing experience for others who might also be living under a delusion that all is well when you’re actually in for an unpleasant surprise. I personally would have preferred a response from SSA that didn’t so closely correspond to “sucks to be you” when you’re the guys also assuring that all is well.

   I don’t know if it’s just me or if perhaps everybody else encountering issues with your site. It appears as though some of the written text on your content are running off the screen. Can somebody else please provide feedback and let me know if this is happening to them too? This might be a problem with my web browser because I’ve had this happen before. Many thanks
