Yes, it will depending on how much money she will be recieving? With SSI anything over $2000 dlls must be reported other wise she's committing fraud and her benefits and be stopped or she will have to over pay what she was paid "over payment". but even then SSI will deduct a current amount monthly unless she requests more or less.

Must report everything to medical otherwise she could be fine and jail time.
