I have three children. My benefit amount is $1886. What would their auxiliary payments be for? Two of them receive SSI and one receives a Title Iv D adoption assistance payment of 795 for when I adopted him. My mother has custody and is retired and draws her retirement. She also is a 1099 contractor and has a job. Will this affect what they can earn? My step dad also works. I tried to calculate it myself but this is so confusing. Also my eligible onset date is August 2019.

I am retired and have 2 minor children. I have read everything that I can find online to figure out the formula for my children’s benefits. It seems that what the SSA is calculating is the lesser amount of those. How can I verify that I am getting what I am entitled to?

My son's mother passed away in 2012. She was unmarried at the time of her death. My son and his half brother both both receive survivor benefits in the amount of $726.00. My son's half brother will turn 18 and graduate from high school shortly after his birthday in early 2022. Will my son's benefit amount increase at that time? Her survivor benefits are not going to any other spouse or child, just split between my son and his half brother. Thanks in advance.

I'm on disability insurance at age 55yrs old. I have been on it for past 4yrs now. My conditions will not improve. My wife is 57 and is a stay at home wife. We have permanent custody of our 2 grandsons ages 6 and 8. Do we have to adopt the boys for them to be eligible to recieve benefits on my record? Also wouldn't my wife be entitled as well since she is caring for them ? I can't seem to get any answers through soc sec. They just tell me it dosent work that way, but it says it does in the pamphlet. However it is vague thanks for any help

My children’s father passed away last month. He was a veteran. He died in the US. We are currently residing in the Philippines now. A VA representative told me that my children might be eligible for Social security benefits if they are under their father’s dependent. but their father has multiple minor children. My children are both minors by the way. Is there a chance that they could draw social security benefits regardless if they are illegitimate children? Thank you

I have legal guardianship of my granddaughter, both parents gave up parental rights. Can i get any financial assistance. I am disabled and on SSDI

My husband passed away in 2005. My two children and his older son recieved a monthly check. When his older son reached 18.. His portion was split between my two children. My oldest daughter just turned 18 on May 21st. Will my son recieve her portion? So far this month was just his normal amount.

Thank you

Is there anyway I can draw off my dad and then is there anyway I can draw off my mom who died

If 3 children receive same amount of survivors benefits, when oldest graduated from high school, should their $ be given to remaining 2 children or dropped? I was told when applying the total could be split by the 3 or given all to one so expected when child graduated to still have that amount for other 2 but it was dropped

My son is going on 15yrs old.. he has a half sister that will be 18 this month. They both receive $820 a month for survivor payments. Once his sister turns 18 , how much will my son then receive?
Thank you
