The term Annual Earnings Exempt Amount means the amount of money you or another family member included in the Special Guaranty computation can earn without affecting your Special Guaranty increase. Refer to Form G-77A, "How Work Affects Your Railroad Retirement Annuities," for the current Annual Earnings Exempt Amount.
However, if the family member works outside the United States for more than 45 hours in a month, and does not pay United States social security taxes, you will lose part of your Special Guaranty increase regardless of the amount of money earned.
