GRAND RAPIDS, MI, January 11, 2015: Founder and President/CEO of Forest Hills Financial, Jaime Westenbarger posted a new blog on his website entitled, “‘Social Security Changes Adversely Affect Low and Middle Income Seniors. Mr. Westenbarger writes, “ For the first time in its history, changes being made to Social Security law will actually eliminate benefits currently being received by spouses, divorced spouses or children on the work record of a spouse, ex-spouse or parent who has taken advantage of the long used File and Suspend strategy.”

Jaime WestenbargerAccording to Westenbarger, “This one change alone will cost millions of households tens of thousands of dollars by forcing those who have suspended their benefits in order to collect higher benefits at age 70 to restart their benefits at permanently lower levels.” He continues adding, “Most will have to do this in order to maintain their family’s living standards.”
