Hi,
Payments that you receive on behalf of your child from Social Security, including SSI (Supplemental Security Income), are intended to be used for your child's current or future needs. If you plan to use any of the benefits that your child is paid to reimburse yourself for past expenditures you paid on behalf of your child, you would need to obtain approval in advance from the Social Security Administration (https://www.ssa.gov/OP_Home/handbook/handbook.16/handbook-1619.html). If you do get such an approval from Social Security, be sure to keep a copy of their authorization so that you'll have proof when you're eventually asked to account for your use of your child's benefits.
Best, Jerry
