A child dependent upon a grandparent can now be eligible for benefits on that grand­ parent's social security if the child’s natural or adoptive pa­ rents are deceased or disabled. The child must have been liv­ ing with and receiving at least 1/2 support from the grand­ parent in the year before the grandparent became entitled to benefit payments. Silent Îhÿ]t heartfelt wish Bank Debits Up In October In case of death of a grand­ parent the same dependency re­ quirements must be met except that the limitation on parents is changed and the surviving grandparent must adopt the child. 2. A child that is adopted by a worker eligible for retire­ ment or disability benefits and who was living with and depen­ dent upon the worker for 12 months before entitlement to social security can be eligible for child’s benefits. Any quali­ fied child who's adoption occur­ red after 1967 may qualify re­ troactive to date of adoption. The law provides that the appli­ cations must be filed by the end of April 1973. Anyone falling in this category should con­ tact a social security office before the end of April 1973. After April 1973 benefits can­ not be paid for months before October 1972. Because the laws are com­ plicated and quite restrictive it is important that all possible cases be brought to the atten­ tion of the Social Security Ad­ ministration immediately. Should you know a child who might qualify for this type of benefit have them get in touch with the social security office Bank debits for the 8 report­ ing banks including Harney and Malheur counties were up in October, 1972, compared to October, 1971, the University of Oregon Bureau of Business and Economic Research has re­ ported.
