  Social Security benefits for dependant children

  by moshe in

  i went to the social security office and asked for my retirement earnings benefit printout, as i am planning on signing up at age 62 next year.. many people don't know this, but if you have a dependant child (some stipulations apply) under the age of 18 living in your home and you claim them on your tax return, you can get a social security check for them until they turn 18.. how much is it?

  it will be 50% of your normal retirement age benefit amount- two or more children will get you more- up to the maximum family amount- which might be less, if you have a spouse drawing off your earnings record.. so, if you know of anyone who fits in this category who isn't getting a check for their child, have them go to the ss office and apply, asap!

  i believe, they pay retroactive benefits.

  The Senator wrote a personal letter that was full of venom towards SSA. Suddenly, within two days of the Senator's letter, SSA granted me benefits.

  I've often heard it said that "it's not what you know but who you know".

  I don't mind his voice because I like his songs so much. Desolation Row... 4th Time Around are the more obscure ones but my favorites.

  They announced that the world had in fact ended in 1914, and if the rest of us hadn't noticed, that was our lookout.

  Very true and funny Sweet......and all the more hilarious for those of us who bought into it (like me).

  i really am... just been attacked for posting on a dog rescue picture.

  the dog was in a rta and as i was eating my dinner and couldn't see the pictures, heading or comments regarding the dog properly i posted that it could be ''dog bait injuries''... which in the area i live is a nasty problem which is rearing it's ugly head.

  dogs are being stolen from back gardens to be used as bait.

  Do You Believe It Is Wrong To "Discipline" Your Child In A Physical Way?

  by minimus in

  my grandkids were being mouthy and they learned a new phrase, "shut your mouth".

  it could be directed to their parents, grandparents or anyone who said something they didn't like.

  they are 2 and 4 years old and beautiful children.

  I think hitting a child is wrong; however, there are times a child needs a smack on the rear-end just to get their attention.

  Wonderful news about Ali....and something to warm your heart

  as i have posted, my daughter ali has been in the cardiac intensive care unit since thursday.

  her bp, heartrate and blood sugar went sky high, due to horrible coughing spells from a chest cold that left her gasping for air.. she has congestive heart failure, and has been treated for almost a year now.

  she has improved over that year, but this was a real setback.. ali called me today with amazing news.

  have been a member of jwr since 2008 and have not been to hall since june 2009, have celebrated 2 yrs without memorial - woohoo - that being said i have stopped by here frequently and decided yesterday to join your group.. it has been very enjoyable to read your stories as well as the other group i have been with, and so it just seemed reasonable to belong to both.. my story is no differant than all the others, the only thing is i was not born in.

  that being said i also have no real issues with being an apostate (although i do believe it is used in the perjorative sense by the wt).. peace - brad.
