I received a SSD lump sum a few years ago and I put it in a cd ?

Asked by a user in Corona, NY - over 1 year ago.

Assuming that when you say you received "a SSD lump sum," you mean that you received Social Security disability insurance benefits (SSDI or DIB), rather than Supplemental Security Income (SSI), then no, you did not have to spend-down the lump-sum of back benefits. If a person receives benefits only under Social Security disability insurance, then they may have any amount of assets invested. If on the other hand, a person is receiving SSI, then they must not have more than a certain amount...

Can my mother keep me from seeing my social security number?

Asked by a user in Phoenix, AZ - over 1 year ago.

If you have state-issued photo identification, such as a driver's license or learner's permit, you can simply go to your local Social Security office, and ask them to issue you a new card. If you do not yet have your driver's license, they might accept secondary identification, such as your birth certificate, school photo ID card, or school records. If your objective is really just to get a job, keep in mind that you do not need to have your actual Social Security card; you simply need to...

I know someone who lost their father. He has the exact same name as his father. Can he receive his father's benefits?

In the state of North Carolina can you receive unemployment benefits while waiting on disability decision?

Asked by a user in Jonesville, NC - over 1 year ago.

Unemployment insurance (UI) benefits and Social Security disability benefits/SSI are often seen as contradictory. When you are applying for UI benefits, you are essentially saying that you are ready, willing AND ABLE to work. When you apply for Social Security disability benefits (SSDI) and/or SSI, you are saying that you cannot maintain substantial gainful activity. Any job in which you earn at least $1,000 per month ($1,640 per month for blind individuals) is presumed to be substantial...

How do i kow that I'm eligible for social security disability claims?

Asked by a user in San Antonio, TX - over 1 year ago.

To see if you are generally eligible for benefits under Social Security disability insurance (SSDI) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) -- that is to say, to see if you meet the non-disability requirements of the programs -- take a look at SSA's website: www.ssa.gov It is very useful. If you still have questions about the programs, or if you mean to ask whether you would meet the disability requirements, then speak to an attorney knowledgeable in Social Security law. A good place to...
