For all who know so much more about the "system" than i do.
Question- When employer says they pay 70% of your "base salary" minus any social security, is it correct that they include ALL social security payments awarded to my total family and not just me? That is my wife gets part of the award for my disability made out solely to her with an amount for her and the children included. This is not a part of "my" paycheck, i have no control over it. It is like my wife is given money for my children as if I wouldn't spend it on them myself (and i give them every cent anyway). She can spend it on anything she wants. Meanwhile , i get this amount in reduced long term pay from my company. Is this true and correct? It sounds to me like an automatic garnishment of wages, just beacuse i happen to be married with children cs
