A person whose earnings exceed the annual exempt amount has SI in benefits withheld for each $2 of earnings above the exempt amount. This withholding is made even though there may be some months in which the person does little or no work.
The only exception, Hundley said, is for the first year in which a person receives a monthly check. In that first year, benefits can be paid for months in which the person does little or no work regardless of the total yearly earnings. After the first year, withholding is based only on total annual earnings.
A person who estimated that he or she would earn less than the annual exempt amount in 1978 should make sure that their earnings are following the pattern they expected. If earnings are running higher than expected, the person should consider having their checks stopped temporarily to avoid possible overpayments.
On the other hand, a person who had his or her benefits stopped because of expected high earnings who now finds that he or she is earning substantially less than expected, could have benefits started.
People in either situation can have their questions answered at the Culpeper social security office located at S22 Culpeper Shopping Center.
