Questions and Answers
With Winter here and
crops in the planning stage,
many farmers are busy
cleaning, oiling, and
repairing their equipment
for use in the Spring. All
farmers know that to be
successful, they must plan
ahead to prevent future
problems.
Farmers! Now is the time
to also stop and give some
thought to your retirement
plans. When a farmer
prepares his tax return, he
sometimes has to make a
decision that will affect his
and his family’s future
protection under social
security. When a farmer has
a bad year and his net profit
is low, he still has the option
to pay social security tax on
two-thirds of his gross in
come, not to exceed SI6OO.
All farmers should be aware
of this and get as much social
security protection as
possible.
Q. I receive monthly social
security benefits for my son
who is 17. He is mentally
retarded and will probably
never be able to work. I do
not know if I will be able to
continue supporting him if
his checks stop at age 18.1 s
there anyway that his checks
can keep on conning?
A.M. Perry
A. Probably so. If your son
is so disabled that he cannot
do any work when he reaches

age 18, his checks will
continue as long as he is
disabled. You should get in
touch with your social
security office at least three
months before he reaches 18
to see about continuing his
checks.
Q. My husband died about
10 years ago. My daughter,
now age 14, and I received
social security checks
following his death. Three
years ago I remarried and
my checks were stopped but
I still receive the check for
my daughter. My last
marriage just ended in a
divorce. Could I start
receiving social security
checks again?
D.E., Elko
A. Yes, but you would have
to complete an application
again on your first husband’s
record. You would also have
to submit a divorce decree.
You should telephone the
Macon social security office
and they will get the
necessary information to get
your checks started again.
Q. My husband was in a
car wreck and will not be
able to work for quite a
while. He is in the hospital
and cannot come to the office
just now. How long can he
wait to file a claim for
disability?
S. J., Perry
A. Phone the social
security office right now.
Disability claims should be
filed early because they take
a good while to process. It is
not necessary for him to
come to the office. If he is not
up to talking on the phone,
we can complete the papers
with your assistance and
mail them for his signature.
Q. My mother died
recently and she was
receiving social security
checks on my father’s
record. Will social security
pay anything on her funeral
expenses?
H.C., Perry
A. Only if she had worked
long enough under social
security. If she had a social
security number of her own,
telephone the social security
office and let us check this
for you.
Q. I have income from
investments and savings.
Does this affect my social
security checks?
R.M. Perry
A. No. Only earnings from
work or self-employment
affects your social security
checks.
