What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? South Carolina. Does anyone know if I get SSI approved what happens if I get an inheritance from my parents?
A lottery prize would count as income.Yes, Thank You! I am talking basicly money, I am not aware of any property. Do you know what would happen if someone on SSI would win a large lottery (powerball,megamillions game)?
Try to get the application submitted before the end of January since there is no retroactivity on SSI before the month of filing. Start online. Finish in your local office. Your 1986 medical information for SSI is not even close to being as important as your 2011 and 2012 medical information.To all who answered.... thank you! As we start this new year, I have decided to go do SSI. I have been diagnosed as depressive/schizophrenic. I have the documentation. It goes back to 1986 when I had to do a 2 yr. live-in residential treatment program. I won't get into the whole story. I am homeless. I am, and I can't see it because I think I am OK, but I am dysfunctional. My parents are still alive, and I can't tell them what I am about to do. It goes against the grain, so to speak!
I have worked since I was about 18 years old. I stopped work (income reported to S.S.) in Nov. 2012. As far as SSDI I had hernia surgery July 2005 and have lived with back pain since the age of !8. Had to go to the emergency room new year's day 3 years ago it was so bad that time! Don't know if I would qualify for that or not!Try to get the application submitted before the end of January since there is no retroactivity on SSI before the month of filing. Start online.

When did you stop work and how much work did you do before that? It is also possible that you could have enough credits for SSDI.
Onderzoek,It is now the 17th of January. You can file an SSDI claim online as well as the disability report and you should do it before the end of January. Social Security takes months and months just to get a yes or no. You don't want to add to that time. Submit that. Your local office will then contact you for the SSI claim. Focus on medical evidence from 2012 and possibly 2011, not 1986 since you have been working until 11/12. That is when your condition stopped you from working.
