Hello,
I'm trying to get some answers regarding my mother's SSI benefits after my father passed away a couple of years ago. Social Security has threatened to stop spousal SSI payments because she still has an income. She is beyond 65 and is still working. Also how does receiving an inheritance affect SSI benefits my mother receives?
Thank You
Hello, five years ago my wife died of cancer. She work for over 10 years. When her death certificate was signed it stated that we were divorce. I went downtown to the court and was giving a letter stating that there has never been a divorce file. what steps do I do to apply?

Hi there,
I am sorry to hear that. You should call the SSA at 1-800-772-1213 to see what your next steps should be.
My husband and I were in a car accident in 1991 ,I was in 18 hours of surgery, I was in bed for seven months,he left me then and my daughter took care of me; he left me, that was about twenty five years ago,I did not know where he was; about two years ago I found out he was hit by a truck, but his sister and attorney did not want me to get in touch with him,"HE WAS TOTALLY DISABLED, could not talk, and bed ridden, they changed the phone number, and moved! She said she did not know we were married; I am disabled,I am disabled,(can not walk far even with a cane, so I am in constant pain, the dr says it chronic arthritis, and my bones have thinned because of age and I also have copd,and a mental problem;"I just found out that he is deceased; I am on SSI, I am 64 years old,am I able to get social security from him because we were still married,and if so, how do I go by doing it?"Thank you for your responce!

Were you married for at least 10 years? If so, you would be able to receive up to 50% of his Social Security payments, assuming you did not get remarried before his death.

Hi Reed,
That doesn't sound good! I think you should contact the SSA as soon as possible, as it seems like someone is using your identity. You can call them at 1-800-772-1213 and they can help you from there.
