As we’ve covered, Social Security overpayment debts have been a huge problem for countless people.
They’ve caused a national outrage, discussions of policy changes, and worst of all, financial ruin for many people affected. But there is some good news in this situation.
The SSA has made efforts to correct these issues. Officials are sorting through cases and also forgiving many debts caused by errors. Take this woman from Texas, who has had her $65,000 overpayment error forgiven by the Social Security Administration.
Imagine what a load this is off her shoulders. Hopefully, this also starts a trend of Social Security overpayment corrections. We look forward to publishing more stories like this, and applaud the SSA for clearing up this situation.
Help The Seniors Center Protect the Future of Social Security
The Seniors Center is committed to finding solutions to strengthen and protect the Social Security Trust Fund. Social Security is a contract between citizens and the government. Money deposited in the Trust Fund should only be used to pay benefits to eligible recipients.
The Seniors Center is demanding Congress finally put a stop to the careless borrowing and spending by greedy politicians that has put our Trust Fund and our secure retirement in jeopardy.
At The Seniors Center, our goal is to help seniors, and we’re doing that by protecting the future of Social Security. Retirees shouldn’t have to worry about losing their hard-earned benefits to taxes or the agendas of greedy politicians. If you agree, we invite you to sign our petition today! And follow The Seniors Center on Twitter and Facebook for more updates!
