I'm a disabled student and SSI recipient in California. I checked the SS handbook but not sure I found an answer.
1. Can you own a new car while receiving SSI, or would you be penalized for acquiring a car loan or maybe even lose benefits?
2. What happens after a SSI recipient dies? Are his properties: home, car, etc. confiscated? Supposing I want to leave inheritors, would it be possible?
I appreciate your answer/advice!
Regards,
Patty
