I, and my wife, started Medicare 'only' before my recently filed benefits for my wife and myself this May. I filed for a restricted application for spousal benefits adjunct to my wife's retirement benefits. When we paid for our Medicare our bills were for the 'future' month; now, starting this May, they have started the deductions this month. How do we get our 2 months of advanced payments back from CMS??

Hi,

Any duplicate Medicare premiums that you paid should be automatically refunded to you. The process of refunding such duplicate premiums can take up to around 60 days, though.

Best, Jerry
