I was my nephew's representative payee for his SSI. SSA started withholding money from my disability check due to overpayment they said my nephew had. I asked for waiver and they approved it, but they didn't reimburse me money they'd taken out of my check for 5 months. Can they do that??

My restitution on this case is over 33,000 but I have paid over 9,000 on this cause in the past 3 years. Will the judge put me in jail because it's not paid in full by the time I go to court?

Normally judges will be lenient if you’re doing the best you can but if you refused to pay or haven’t paid a lot in the last few months they could give you an ultimatum and say you have to pay X amount with a a certain...
