What is the normal SSI payment per month!?

First of all, SSI is counting your past "free rent" as "in kind income" so they are reducing your check. Get your rent receipts showing you are now paying rent. Bring all the receipts from the time you started to pay rent, so they can adjust your record. You may be due some back money, but your payment will be affected by the "free rent" all the months you had "free rent" and the first two months you started to pay rent. Second, SSI is different from State to State. Some states supplement the federal part. In order to find out if your state supplements SSI, contact your local Social Security Administration (SSA). You will need to go see them with your rent receipts anyway so that will be a good time to ask them. Food stamps should not affect your SSI. SSI does not care what your expenses are. Depending on your "LIVING ARRANGEMENT" (living alone, living with others, living in the household of another, congregate care, etc.) you are allowed a certain amount of income. If you are below that income (and are disabled), SSI will give you enough $$ to bring you up to that income. If you live by your self and your state SSI program says a person living by them selves is allowed $623.00 a month, that is all you are going to get. It does not matter if your rent is $300.00 or $3,300.00 they will just send you $623.00. So if have any income at all, it can be earned income (wages), un earned income (interest, another disability check, etc.), or "in kind income" (some one giving you a free place to stay) your SSI will be reduced. If you work, and have no other income, you can make up to $65.00 GROSS a month before your SSI is reduced. SO if you can work, even if it is just a few hours a week, you can increase your income a little. If you make more than $65.00 though SSI will then reduce your check by $1.00 for every $2.00 that you make above $65.00. If you do work, bring your pay stubs to your local SSA office at least 4 times a year to avoid a scary overpayment. If you don't report your wages to SSI, they will eventually find out and then you will be hit with a HUGE overpayment which is not fun.

I'm not sure why they are taking out the money they are from your SSI check, but I do know that the money you get for food stamps has nothing to do with - so keep them.

It could be that they think you are living in the home of another and so you need less income. You need to ask your worker the exact reason why.

If you have proof that you pay more than those amounts - then show them the proof. $250 for rent is very very little - that is why I think they must think you are renting a room or living in your parents house and don't need so much.

first and extra advantageous, social risk-free practices money are a federally run software so the guidelines ought to be the comparable no remember the place you reside. it incredibly is no longer announcing interpretation would not factor into judgements. 2nd, SSI is desperate via earnings. It look they don't seem to be weighing that via fact the figuring out factor yet your daughter's age and the certainty she is at college may lead them to have self assurance you have a bigger skill to pass to artwork while not having to seek for a caregiver for her. final, no longer all particular practise little ones are eligible for SSI. it incredibly is per incapacity. Your daughter's speech and language problems promptly impact your daughter's skill to end the on a regular basis projects of existence. jointly with, you have have been given had issues looking an afternoon care that should take her via fact of communique issues. whether examining comprehension and math calculating skill will play a place later in existence while getting a job, they do no longer impact her skill to end on a regular basis events or require you to get particular shield her. for this reason the colleges acquire funds to hold her to her maximum skill. If while she reaches the age to get a job, her gaining expertise of disabilities impact her skill to get gainful employment, she could be eligible lower back. you frequently have the incredible to attraction. carry as plenty documentation as to how this makes her existence complicated as available and sturdy success to you.

it is a question best answered by your SSI worker and food stamps are based on how less you have so giving them back will not change anything also I would do this before I moved into a van you may still be charged for rent by the government

Hmmm, I don't I've never heard of money being taken out of a disability check. It's possible that you have too much in your bank account(s), I've heard that you can't have more than like $2,000-2,500 in your bank account(s) at once.

Talk to your Case-Worker, he/she should be able to help you.

Also, call the Social Security Adm.

Ask the SSI !
