Procedure for
Insurance Claims

Workers can file their claims FOR
Old-age and survivors insurance at age
10 OF any time thereafter. whether OF
not they plan to retire, Charles l..
Hickey, manager of the Social Secur-
ity Boards office at 1925 Michigan
avenue in Dea rbOrn, pointed out to-
day. He explained. however, that in
Surance payments will not be made to
any worker as long as he is employed
that is. the worker will not receive
an insurance payment for any month
In which he earns as much aS SD Oh
u jOb covered by the law.
Workers age 81 or older who are
planning to file claim for insurance
payments should consult the Social Sc
curity Board Office On two separate
points. First, the emplOye may not
have worked long enough to he eligible
for benefits but if he continues TO
work he may qualify later. Any work
er who plans to retire in order To get
his insurance payments should inquire
whether he is eligible before quitting
his job.
The second point is concerned with
the amount of the workers benefits,
which will be determined by the
monthly average Of wages he has re-
ceived under the system prior To the
time he applies for benefits, whether
or not he continues to work. In some
instances where the emplOye continued
to work, the amount Of his benefit
would be increased if he waits and
files his claim later. In other cases
where the emplOye is working at a
lower wage than formerly. it might
be to his advantage TO file his claim
at once.
