I have a question, I am on ssi now (for a back injury), its permanent. I will use round numbers to make it easy, first off I have a wife (not working , and 2 children (ages 15 and 5) I receive a check for $1300 and the rest of my family each get a check for appx $216 apiece ( thats the wife and 2 children). My wife and I are divorcing and the kids will be legally staying with me, can you tell me in what way that will affect the amount and distribution of the ssi checks.My wife will be getting a job , so no need to figure in alimony or things like that.
I am hoping that i do not lose my wifes $216 portion , but instead that it nows gets figured into my children amounts. I am hoping I will not loose any money (it will only be distributed differently).
Please only answer this question if you are absolutely positive of how this will work.
Thank you
Sam
