Inelegible adult receiving trust

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on

Can the spouse of an ssi recipient receive a portion of a family trust that is for immediate family only and not jeopardize the spouses eligibility?

Hi there,
as SSI benefits for a married beneficiary are dependent on combined income, you may have a change in benefits as that may be considered income. It may be a good idea to contact your local SSA office regarding this.
