A study recently completed
by the Dallas office showed that
the reason most often given for
not filing claims promptly was
lack of knowledge about the
program. Some claimants knew
about the payment of benefits
but thought they were Ineligible
because of misunderstanding of

several 75 year-old persons who
were still working did not know
that the $75.00 limit on earn-

said, losses to 52 claimants
