Your current state is Virginia
You will need to Request an Appeal at the Appeals Council level and hope that it is remanded back to the local office for re-evaluation.
Due to an industrial commission stipulation agreement the state of Arizona's benefits have been denied due to a false interpretation of the disability
I'm sorry for the impact this injury has had upon your life. You chose categories that make sense for injury/disability. But you mention the Industrial Commission of Arizona. If this involves an injury that occurred in the course of your employment, and you had a workers' compensation attorney at... Read more »
I would call the local Social Security Administrative office in your area. I would not reapply until you speak with them. You shouldn't have to apply again if you have an approval letter. It can sometimes take weeks and even several months to receive payment.

We always suggest that you apply for SSDI and see if you are eligible. Please keep in mind, the process is tedious and can take as little as 3 months or as long as 24+ months. It's imperative to have all medical documentation and appointments up to date at all times.

SSI will end and she had to apply for SSDI. Will she have to go through another medical evaluation? I am told the disability decision from SSI may carry over to SSDI not that it will carry over.
It should carry over. Check with your county's disability advocate, or if your daughter has a specific condition with an association that works for people with that condition (e.g., the MS Society). Good luck!
Hi, Im a social worker I have a client who we have moved from homelessness to housing through our program. She has many medical issues and is in recovery from substance use, as well. She was recently awarded SSI and has a high child support arrears. Family court in her county is asserting that all... Read more »
They cannot seize or garnish her ss for child support or anything else. In fact, you may be able to get ss to pay for the children from the time she applied for ss up though their emancipation. I would have her start paying a small amount towards the arrearage each week to show good faith, but no... Read more »

I'm sorry for this terrible experience, given your disabled condition. A California attorney could advise best but your question remains open for four weeks. If you have medical documentation of the sickness/injury you suffered here, such as ER visit or doctor examination, gather them and see if... Read more »
Social security left mesg. Wanting to talk to me cause they are investigating this. The want me to call. Im scared.
The most important piece of advice in this situation is not to speak with the investigators without an attorney present. Do not think you can simply explain the situation or talk your way out of it. That will not happen. Best of luck!
Child support payments has been taken from my benefits since September of 2019
You may be entitled to a reimbursement from the other parent or a credit against other expenses you may owe or even college expenses.
That may be because of your plans. Your county MH coordinator should be able to assist you. Because of the reimbursement rates and amount of paperwork involved it is very difficult for anyone on Medical Assistance to find Psychologists or Psychiatrists to help. Philhaven outpatient or similar may... Read more »
I have started working and have reported it, but would like to know if I will receive my November check, as I have received no notice as of today. Thanks so much.
Your best bet is to speak to someone at social security or the state. I assume you had some agreement when you began work as in a spend down plan?

Honey I'm so sorry you're going through this. You should go to Catholic Social Services, if you can find one. If your dad has papers you may be able to get your green card through being a trafficking victim. You might be able to find help here: https://ccsww.org/get-help/specialized-services/... Read more »

If you are found to have been disabled for at least 1 year, then yes, you are entitled to benefits, even if it was for a prior period, and no longer need it going forward. However, you can only get benefits going back 1 year from when you apply.
My wife, 57, is legally blind. Her vision has steadily gone downhill for 15-20 years and hasn't driven since 2005. She hasn't worked since 1995 after our second daughter was born.
Maybe, but unlikely. If she is qualified for disability for medical reasons, because she has not paid into Title 2 AKA SSDI since 1995, she would not qualify financially. The other benefit available IF she medically qualifies, is Supplemental Security Income AKA Title 16 or SSI.
SSI is... Read more »
Prevented total removal. It is a meningioma located near my pituitary gland. It obstructed my left orbital nerve. I’m blind in my left eye. I’m now hypothyroid and tired all the time. I had a stroke in April 2018. I haven’t worked since surgery. I was looking forward to returning... Read more »
There is too little in your statement to give a helpful answer beyond speculation. It may be SSA is just slow in getting you your back pay. They often take 3 months to process it and can take more time. At this point, no lawyer will want to help you because you have already won and they can make no... Read more »
You should search for legal aid in Alabama, and see what is available close to you. If you don't qualify, keep in mind that most attorneys will only charge you if successful in finding you disabled.

The $10,000 inheritance is disqualifying income in the month of receipt. There is not much you can do about that. If you still have that money on hand on the first day of the following month, sitting in a regular ol' checking account, for example, it will be a countable asset and that will again... Read more »
Almost surely not. Probation.
Best of luck to you.
Will this make him lose his disability? Or how does he keep from losing his disability benefits? rental properties and other real estate has to be divided
As a Virginia Social Security Disability lawyer, I can tell you this divorce should have no impact on his disability. However, he should verify this with his divorce lawyer.

You can disclaim an inheritance but it won't necessarily go to his kids. There are also exemptions on medicaid/care for lump sums.
I would suggest hiring an attorney to advise him on this. If you don't do it correctly it'll be bad.
