Hi does this mean I will receive 1700 dollars a month?
No. It means that the SSI was adjudicated to payment by one employee before the SSDI was adjudicated to payment by another employee, and the interface between the programs was not early enough in the month to stop the SSI from being paid. Some of the letters will tell you about that. The $750 is...- Janke

Shouldn't an estate be treated like a trust?
This was an unprobated estate. There is policy on how to treat it. If he was to inherit under the will, then he would have ownership interest in the home and it would be an excluded resource with no in-kind income charged. Assuming all the criteria listed in the link below were met...- Janke

Shouldn't an estate be treated like a trust?
There are two basic issues. 1. Is the overpayment amount correct or incorrect? Was the right policy applied to your inherited assets? Details matter and all the documents should be read thoroughly. So appealing the amount/fact of the overpayment is probably something you should do because you...- Janke

social security
1. WEP (Windfall Elimination Provision) exists because the first S in Social Security is Social. There is a bit of income redistribution inherent in computing Social Security benefits. Computation of benefits is based on highest 35 years of lifetime earnings. If you were an NBA basketball player...- Janke

Problems with Obtaining SSN
Where is the proof that your father is a US citizen? Where is the proof that this man who was born in the US is actually your father? Do you have a US passport?- Janke

I also think you are mixing up your lifetime earnings with the amount of FICA paid. You can check it out by pulling out all of your old W2's and adding up the FICA taxes. The numbers given in a prior post are for those who earned the max. Did you earn the max for 58 years? Did you really work...- Janke

Child ssi
I am going to assume that Tnk0311 is correct and both the child and the partner is getting SSI and not SSDI. There are formulas that determine how much of a parent or spouse's income is used in computing SSI. It is called deeming. When there is a spouse and child who are both on SSI, the...- Janke

confused !
SSA doesn't forget your overpayment even if they stop sending you bills. So it would be recovered someday. Why were you overpaid? You should have gotten a notice or SSA should be able to provide it to you. You can also request a waiver of the overpayment.- Janke

SSI and Medicare
Aha! MQGE. You don't say, but don't you also get a small government pension? Or did you withdraw all those funds before applying for a pension? I know that you would be required to apply for all cash benefits from other sources in order to remain eligible for SSI cash benefits...- Janke

Using a parents work history to get SSDI in addition to SSI
Is your father deceased? Is he over retirement age and filed his own retirement claim? Is he currently entitled to SSDI on his own record because he is currently disabled? Your father would have to be dead or getting money from SS first. Then you could file as a Childhood Disability Beneficiary...- Janke

SSI and Medicare
What did SSA tell you? I also do not understand how you could have gotten a Medicare card as an SSI only recipient. Your state decides if you get Medicaid as an SSI recipient, many states do. Makes no sense to me either. You should bring your letters to your SSA office. First.- Janke

Widow's vs divorced spouse benefits
No. Once you file on one husband at age 60, you are effectively filing on the other husband. You cannot restrict that application. SSA will decide which is higher and will pay it. You can, however, wait to file on your own record at full retirement age 66ish or even wait until 70 if you apply...- Janke

SSI and inheritance of life insurance proceeds
Special needs trusts established with your own money are not excluded resources for SSI. The mother could have directed the insurance be paid to the trust, and then it would be excludable, but that did not happen. This is a start to the instructions...- Janke

SSI and inheritance of life insurance proceeds
Paying out money at $100 a month generally means that SSI will go down $100. So if the mother was doing that for years, SSI should have been reduced then by the same amount of money that the mother gave her. Anyway, it is too late to establish a way to exclude this money from affecting the SSI...- Janke

SSI and inheritance of life insurance proceeds
If she is ineligible for 12 months, she has to reapply and go through the disability decision process. If it is less than 12 months, she needs to show how she spent the money and then get reinstated without a new application. If SSI finds out a year later, she will still have to supply the...- Janke

SSI and inheritance of life insurance proceeds
The general rule is that receipt of an inheritance counts as income in the month received and is evaluated as a resource the first of the next month. If countable resources are over $2000, then she is not eligible until it is under $2000. Because the life insurance company will issue a 1099 on...- Janke

SSR benefits after Ex Spouse Passing
I don't even understand the question. If you have your ex spouse wage information for the time before the divorce, you can plug that information into the calculator. The default assumption is that he will continue to make the same amount of money in future years as he did in the last year you...- Janke

Taxes on sons SSI benefit
Your title is wrong. Your son does NOT receive SSI since his father retired. Your son gets Social Security Auxiliary benefits or Child's benefits. If your child were himself disabled and you and his father had limited income and resources, then your child would be getting the welfare SSI...- Janke
