Not Necessary To Retire To Receive Old Age Payment
J Gordon James of the Wichita Falls Social Security office says you do not need to retire at 65 to get a lump sum under the Social Security Act. Lump sums equal 3 percent of earnings since 1936 for those now age 65, with no deductions for unemployment benefits. The old-age and unemployment programs are separate, though many workers are covered by both and share a social security number. J W Whitman made a business trip to Wichita Falls Monday.
