Benefits of New Social Security Laws for Warren County
Howard H. Gift outlines 1960 amendments that reduce work years to qualify for Social Security benefits, making about 1200 previously ineligible people in Warren and Chautauqua counties eligible. Immediate cash benefits apply to 175 Warren County residents, with October as the first payment month. The changes lower required work from 4 1/2–5 years to about 3 years for full retirement, with a minimum 1.5 years rule still in place. The article cites specific cases and urges eligible widows, workers at retirement age, and dependents to file promptly, noting upcoming survivor benefits and a projected future rise in eligible earners. It also mentions corporate filings and local Marine Corps League activities and officers.
