Category:

Social Security

Can my young children get Social Security benefits if I get FERS supplement? I’m a retired law enforcement officer under 62 years old.

Since the FERS Retiree Annuity Supplement is paid by the Office of Personnel Management, this would not entitle your eligible minor children to collect from Social Security. You must be eligible for and collecting a benefit from Social Seciruty in order for your children to draw against your SSA account.
