I'm on Survivor benefits SS. I had to go back to work and I'm going over the amount by 10K. I know SS will deduct from me but will it be applied the next year to

How long will SS keep my lower payments

That is a question for Social Security--not TurboTax.

Basically ... if you went over the max allowed by say $10K then they will reduce your payment until recouped and they don't spread it out over the year.  So if you get 2K per month in SS benefits then you would expect to not get any payments for the first 5 months ... check with the SS admin for program  details.
