M ‘"‘Sf “f** 1 " CMr !^ A widow may now elect to in* ** w ^ ayoltobte at your aoctol ceive social security benefits as early as the age of 60. These benefits will be reduced to take account of the longer time they will be paid. Previously, the widow of an insured worker had to wait until she reached 62 be fore she could get widow’s bene- flts. A divorced woman may now re ceive wife’s or widow’s benefits under the following conditions: if she was married to her for mer husband for at least 20 years; if she has been receiving at least one-half of her support from her former husband (or there is in effect a written agree ment or court order for-substan tial contributions); and if her former husband had worked long enough under social security. A son or daughter of a retired, disabled, or deceased worker may now receive child’s benefits up to the age of 22, if he or she is unmarried and a full-time stu dent. The mother of such a stu dent, lu^ever, will stop receiv ing mother’s benefits just as be fore, when her youngest child reaches 18 (unless he has been disabled since before age 18) or marries. A widow 60 or over whose benefits have stopped because she remarried may now receive benefits on her deceased hus band’s account (in the amount of 50 per cent of his benefit) even though she is married again. If she is entitled to bene fits on her husband’s account, she will receive an amount equal to the higher of the two bene fits. And if the second marriage ends, she may receive her orig inal benefit again. Women 72 or older who were not eligible for benefits under the old law because they or their husbands , had not worked long enough under social security, may now be eligible for a special monthly benefit based on a shorter period of work. Some of these older women will be eli gible for social security because they worked for a few months themselves; others may be able to receive wife’s or widow’s security office. The Greenwood office is located at 619 South Main Street, Greenwood. • • • According to Martha F. Press- ly, manager of the Greenwood Social Security office, only about 29 per cent of the anticipated number of widows between tee ages of 60 and 61 have thus far filed claims for reduced widows’ benefits. The 1966 amendments to the Social Security Act pro vides that the widows of insured workers under the age of 62, who do not have children under It m their care, can receive monthly benefits. These reduced benefits are payable beginning with the monte of Septenabor, 1966, or for the monte of attain- meht of age 60, which ever is later.. Benefits are reduced by five-ninths of one per cent for each month a widow is under the age of 62. No benefits are pay able until an application is filed. Normally, a widow will have to present her marriage certificate and proof of her age. As in the case of other benefits, widows’ benefits are subject to deductions for excess earnings.
