Social Security Disability Benefits
Nov 02, 2017OUTCOME: The support obligation was terminated and $59,000.00 in arrears were vacated.
When a dependent child receives a partial award from an obligor-parent's social security benefit, it is considered a support payment towards that parent's monthly obligation of support. If the monthl ... y obligation is less than the the child's social security benefit, the parent does not owe any additional support amount, and arrears can be adjusted accordingly.
