what about by the box 1 amount, which I believe is what is called a "special payment"?
and finally, will any of this be counted as SGA and affect my eligibility?
If you are adding income to your Social Security base, I don't see why it can't be increased.
I'm not sure what you are asking about Box 1.
It shouldn't because you didn't work, but I suspect the automated computers will trigger something because they THINK you had that income due to working. You may need to contact the Social Security Administration about it.
