Guest guest Posted September 10, 2007 Report Share Posted September 10, 2007 This was great, Donna. Thank you so much! It made sense of my recent statement. I get it now! LOL I still don't have enough credits, but now I understand it. LOL Challis |}onna wrote: Sharon et. al. From: http://www.ssa.gov/pubs/11051.html#credits Credits of work A person's work history determines his or her eligibility for Social Security benefits, as well as SSI eligibility for some noncitizens. A person earns "work credits" based on the amount of money earned. The amount needed to earn a work credit goes up slightly each year as averae earning levels increase. For Social Security benefits, a person can get a maximum of four credits per year. This limit on credits does no apply to SSI benefits for noncitizens. A noncitizen can also receive up to four additional credits per year from a spouse's or parents' work. Work credit remain on a person's Social Security record indefinitely. The extra work credits are not posted on a noncitizen's work record and do not count towards Social Security benefits. For more information, see How You Earn Credits (SSA Publication No. 05-10072) From: http://www.ssa.gov/pubs/10072.html How You Earn Credits You qualify for Social Security benefits by earning Social Security credits when you work in a job and pay Social Security taxes. The credits are based on the amount of your earnings. We use your work history to determine your eligibility for retirement or disability benefits or your family's eligibilty for survivors benefits when you die. In 2007, you receive one credit for each $1,000 of earnings up to the maximum of four credits per year. Each year the amount of earning needed for credits goes up slightly as average earning levels increase. The credits you earn remain on your Social Security record even if you change jobs or have no earning for awhile. ------------- So it looks like.. If Kate is 3 credits short, then $3,000.00 worth of earning this year (2007) would make her eligible.. [300 hours at $10 an hour is all the more she'd need] According to the above I would think it really wouldn't matter what was done, so long as you earned money & paid the Social Security taxes on the money earned.. ---- Oooo.. I scrolled down and found more information... Self-employed - you earn credits the same as an employee 1 credit for each $1,000.00 net earnings.. (Publication No. 05-10022) Military - same as civilian employees do, you also may get additional credits under certain conditions. (Publication No. 05-10017) There are special rules about how you earn credits for other kinds of work.. ie. Domestic, Farm, Church... How long must you work to qualify for Social Security? The number of credits you need to be eligible for benefits depends on your age and the type of benefit. Retirement benefits Anyone born in 1929 or later needs 10 years of work (40 credits) to be eligible for retirement benefits. People born before 1929 need fewer years of work. Disability benefits How many credits you need for disability benefits depends on how old you are when you become disabled. If you become disabled before age 24, you generally need 1 1/2 years of work (6 credits) in the three years before you became disabled. If you are 24 through 30, you generally need credits for half of the time between age 21 and the time you became disabled. *my note* this one I didn't understand. If you are disabled at age 31 or older, you generally need at least 20 credits in the 10 years immediately before you became disabled. the following table show examples of how many credits you would need if you became disabled at various selected ages. This table does not cover all situations: DISABLED AT AGE CREDITS NEEDED YEARS OF WORK 31 - 42 20 5 44 22 5.5 46 24 6 48 26 6.5 50 28 7 52 30 7.5 54 32 8 56 34 8.5 58 36 9 60 38 9.5 62 & older 40 10 Hope this stuff clears some things up.. or at least gives some answers to questions.. |}onna disability ? I was wondering if anyone knows about this...I receive, as I think everyone does, an informational form, that is personalized with my name, address, last 4 digits of my Soc. Sec.#, and a summation of my earnings from years gone by. It lists what my Medicare benefits will be in the future. Now, here's my question--there is a column for disability. It states that based on my earnings, I could currently receive 'about' (they actually use the word, about!) $742 a month. Yet, when I spoke to a rep from disability on the phone, they stated I do not have enough work credits. I apparently need a total of 20 work credits, and I only have 17. I asked if it could somehow be 'pro-rated'; she said no. Any thoughts on this? With the various and ebbing and flowing of symptoms, I don't even know if I can work at this time. The woman who's kids I was watching in the morning said she is not sure it will work out, as her son says it is too loud here!..I spoke to my 2 kids that are home when they come, and they said they'd bring it down a notch. Then, on Fri., her son, Grant, comes out with--gee, it's quiet here...too quiet... I guess whatever is meant to be...I was looking forward to $75/wk... love to all, kate Building a website is a piece of cake. Yahoo! Small Business gives you all the tools to get online.

Guest guest Posted September 10, 2007 Report Share Posted September 10, 2007 I'm glad that it did... there's a lot of useful information on their site..

The boss told me she should have done so already for the families we have.. but that circumstances (their house burned, and the day they moved into a new place, some gangster was at their house first before going to the oldest son's apartment and shooting their cousin to death in front of a 12 year old!).. after the killing, they moved from place to place for about a month.. in the Witness Protection Program.. (7 kids and 1 adult, though one of the 7 kids is actually and adult).. now they've taken a temporary house.. till they can find something with 3 bedrooms.. for all the kids.. But I'd like to read up on it.. and know what she's talking about when the boss starts to explain it.. LOL I have a feeling, I'm about to become more and more educated as time goes on.. this ain't gonna be no answer the telephone, direct the calls, type job for long...

Guest guest Posted September 10, 2007 Report Share Posted September 10, 2007 oK. Now I'm totally confused. I didn't see a chart by Donna. Anybody able to find the link? ~*Trista*~ CFIDS/FM ~ Educate yourself.My disabling chronic illness is more real, than your imaginary medical expertise! disability ? I was wondering if anyone knows about this...I receive, as I think everyone does, an informational form, that is personalized with my name, address, last 4 digits of my Soc. Sec.#, and a summation of my earnings from years gone by. It lists what my Medicare benefits will be in the future. Now, here's my question--there is a column for disability. It states that based on my earnings, I could currently receive 'about' (they actually use the word, about!) $742 a month. Yet, when I spoke to a rep from disability on the phone, they stated I do not have enough work credits. I apparently need a total of 20 work credits, and I only have 17. I asked if it could somehow be 'pro-rated'; she said no. Any thoughts on this? With the various and ebbing and flowing of symptoms, I don't even know if I can work at this time. The woman who's kids I was watching in the morning said she is not sure it will work out, as her son says it is too loud here!..I spoke to my 2 kids that are home when they come, and they said they'd bring it down a notch. Then, on Fri., her son, Grant, comes out with--gee, it's quiet here...too quiet... I guess whatever is meant to be...I was looking forward to $75/wk... love to all, kate No virus found in this incoming message.Checked by AVG Free Edition.
