<prompt> Human: My dad is 66 and decided he wanted to pay off his mortgage by withdrawing. He called his tax man in to find out what he would owe on that and that was about it. He did this a few weeks ago and now on Friday got something in the mail saying he was going to lose his VA benefits because of how much he made this year and also is being told he has to pay back his Social Security for the year. This is true? Does he have any recourse?  <response>: His tax man is an idiot. Or incompetent. He should have asked all the questions to understand your dads situation.
