Refer to Form G-77, How Earnings Affect Payment of Survivor Annuities, for the annual earnings exempt amounts.
The term "annual earnings exempt amount" means the amount of money you can earn in a year without losing part of your annuity.
You may lose part of your annuity if you earn more than the annual earnings exempt amount in a year. An annuitant who has attained full retirement age (FRA) is not affected by this provision. See Introduction for a definition of full retirement age.
