My question is related to penalty assessed against retiree receiving a government pension (PERS). I am a widow elgible for my deceased husband's SS at age 60, but I have only recently discovered that I will be assessed a 2/3 penalty of my pension subtracted from SS widow's survivor benefit at age 60. In my case, I will receive NO SS benefit. Waiting for full benefit elgibility at age 66 for me still allows me only a small portion of SS based on subtracting 2/3 of my pension from survivor's benefit. I had heard there was a bill in congress to eliminate this penalty. It also affects those covered under the TRS (teachers) pension program.
