To answer a couple questions asked, I was told at the SS office that police/fire and railroad pensions were the only ones effected by WEP. My only contributions into the SS fund was military, special duty jobs (LE), and "mostly" part time work after retirement. With the minimum 40 hours required, I barely qualified to file for benefits. Social Security gives me a whopping $95.00 a month, down @ 2/3rds from what was promised per SS calculations.
