What is the name of your state? nj my husband filed for social security disabilty benefits 2 years ago and social security wants to give him a lump sum settlement at $797.00 a month for 24 months and close his case since he's had back surgeryand can now go back to work.. My ? his daughter ( who he does not have custody of ) has a child support order of $250 a month. Social security would give his daughter 1/2 of what he gets which works out to be 389.50 a month for her. Now because the cs order is less will they only give the 250 or the 389.50 and will the ss benifit go to child support or the custodial parent? thanks
