I receive SSI and SSDI. I have two children who also receive SSI. My roomate gets PCA services and it was offered to me to be her adult foster parent. I currently get paid as a PCA and it counts against me. Would this stipend for adult foster care be counted as income? I have called the SS office multiple times and get a different answer every time... they say no it's foster care or yes it counts as income since you are performing a service. I can find publications that say foster care payments do not count but she is an adult foster..

I am 58 years old and I just received SSI if for some reason the only amount of money that I'm getting is $850 a month I cannot pay rent without going into hole every month and I don't understand why am I getting just no amount of money from SSI

Hi,

I’m 67 drawing SS. I have custody of my disabled granddaughter who receives SSI and medicaid. I’m
Going back to court to get full custody. Should I ask to adopt her and if I do will she lose her SSI because I also receive a VA disability & a teacher state Retirement. I don’t want her to lose her check or her Medicaid because of the cost of Tricare. Her mother is also receiving SSI. There is no father in the picture.

Hi,

Im on ssi and my wife is on ssi and ssdi. How will it affect our benefits if we got a divorce?

Hi,

My expertise is limited to Social Security benefits, and I only have a limited knowledge of Supplemental Security Income (SSI). All I can tell you for sure is that a divorce would have no effect on your wife's Social Security disability benefits (SSDI).

I'm in serious trouble. I was in the hospital and forced to sign many, many unfilled-out forms. I'm on SSDI because I earned it and needed it. But now I have MASSHEALTH! Illegally! I own my condo! Now I got a letter that I have been switched to SSI! My monthly payment is now reduced, I'm not getting money to pay my mortgage December 12th, and I've been tricked into getting MASSHEALTH by the hospital!

Hi Larry,

ssa says they did not know we were married for two years and my husband that has a dem, head and brain trauma and other med problems owe them about 10,000$ because they gave ssi

Hi,

My sister has been receiving SSI since being determined to be disabled in 2015. She will turn 62 in November, 2021.
How will this affect her benefits? (She worked on and off at low paying jobs, having had difficulty staying employed). She currently receives about $1200 a month and $120 in food stamps. (She lives in Staten Island with $800 a month rent for a studio apartment, so you can see why I'm concerned). Thank you for any info and advice you can provide.

Hi,
