Students Must Notify SS Office Of School Plans
Summer vacation brings a reminder to student social security beneficiaries that failing to notify the Social Security Administration of intent to remain enrolled full time will stop checks. An eighteen or older student may receive payments for up to four summer months if planning to return to full time attendance in fall. A simple notice suffices to avoid delays.
