My GF has had applied for CalFresh assistance and just has received a phone call from the worker asking all sorts of questions.
According this worker, they expect that GF would supply details about how she had obtained the green card many years ago, along with detailed information about her... Read more »
She only needs to provide proof of lawful permanent resident status by way of her alien number. Perhaps, she can also show a copy of her ‘valid card.’ She has no other status, so other questions seem irrelevant, perhaps, unless this concerns more, which seems questionable.

She is on SSI and is Bi Polar. There is a Special Needs Trust set up for her. She won this playing Bingo and the Casino took all the taxes out and gave her $5,000 cash and the rest in a check because that is what she asked them to do. I found out about it and have all of it now and wondering what I... Read more »
Yes if her special needs trust is a first party SNT; otherwise no. If it is not a first party SNT the best choice is probably an ABLE account if she is eligible.
I receive SS Disability due to a very serious work accident. Due to my mental condition at the time the courts directed it to be payed through a payee.

You would likely need to have the payee removed first prior to making such a request.

I worked most of my life and did pay into disability benefits. I was not employed at the time of my injury and was granted ssi. Can I put in an appeal to get ssdi benefits?
MORE INFO NEEDED.
YOU NEED TO ASK THIS QUESTION ON AN EMPLOYMENT LAW FORUM.....I ONLY HANDLE DUI AND PI
A relative qualified for SSI; however, the Award Letter does not state the disorders that allowed him to receive disability payments. Because he has so many disorders, we don't know which one or which ones were used as the bases to qualify him. Who do we contact to receive this information?
I would suggest that he contact the local Social Security Administrative office and ask for a breakdown. He will also receive an award letter that should provide a detailed explanation as well.

not sure what you are asking.
whether you can get a job is not a legal question.
if you are a victim of anything you may want to talk to a PI lawyer. They usually offer a free consultation.
they will probably suggest you talk to the police.

Is is problematic whether the over payment would have been discovered, expect for my bringing to the... Read more »
More information is needed for me to correctly answer your (good) question.
This depends whether or not there is fraud on your part. Usually, Social Security just declares an overpayment and asks you to pay it back.

He had an accomplice that spoofed his caller ID to make it look as though he was calling from my local Department.... Read more »

Generally, if you receive SSI, then you cannot have more than $2,000 of countable assets. So yes, ordinarily an inheritance would disqualify you for SSI... and Medi-Cal.

I was wondering if using a random SSN illegal. I read a couple articles and it said that using a random SSN is not illegal but you have to use your real name. A couple months later, I saw another article and it said that a man was charged for using someone elses SSN. Which one is correct?
It could constitute mail fraud, wire fraud, etc.
I was denied SS a few years ago in Texas. I have since moved to California and am receiving better healthcare treatment than in Tx. I have confirmed my diagnosises by my new doctor. With that, I want to appeal my denial asap.
If you received a denial a few years ago you will need to reapply for Social Security Disability benefits. The deadline to appeal a decision is 60 days (plus 5 for mailing) from the date on your denial letter. In certain circumstances you can re-open a prior claim, but most often it must be done...
