Social Security benefit cutback averted for retirees
Thousands of retired federal state and local workers can dodge a lifetime cut in independent Social Security benefits by filing basic paperwork before month end. Eligible dependents widows and widowers may receive 100 to 500 dollars more per month, depending on spouse status and benefits. The pending Senate House compromise on an offset could reduce future dependent or widow benefits if kept in the final bill. Those already filed or drawing benefits are not affected.
