Regarding disability, why does the disability office make a decision on disability and then go back a half year or in some cases more and then charge you for medicare for each of those months just so they can confiscate that cash from your award? They don’t cover bills from that time period. They just take a chunk of the money.

I propose reform which would create a safety net for people who are able to find employment, as well as increasing the assets allowed. This would be life changing by creating a safety net, rather than commitment to poverty.

You need to get a lawyer. This is why applicants are processed faster.

I get SSDI and SSI at the lowest amount. I receive 7/8 of my funds from SSI. Why isn’t SSDI paying more than SSI? I’m disabled so I’m not understanding.
I’m also getting a yearly cost of living raise of $4. Then they take away $20 of my food stamps benefits !!?
I’m embarrassed to even admit that I’m on disability and have to talk about it. I’m grateful that I’m receiving what I do, but these career govt workers go in as middle class and end up being millionaires by laundering tax incomes??
At $900 a month I’m really struggling. I absolutely hate that I have to get a handout but there’s no other solution. I was in denial for years and refused to believe I had no other recourse. I was delusional that I could actually be a normal person and live a normal life.
It is a non livable amount already, should not be taxed or penalized just because a spouse works.
