Social Security Disability

Seems I may be disabled according to grid guidelines (age, inability to use 2 limbs). Watched the YT videos but am unable to find out the approximate time of when the medical examiner approves and the check arrives. Am trying to save my home and believe bank will work with me if they knew my future held a reliable income. I am unable to find a job in MT and have not had an income for 6 months. Running out of things to sell and am 2 months late on mtg. Does anyone have any expe ...

Ok, I found out last week that a friend of mine is collecting survivor benefits from 2 dead husbands at the same time. Has anybody else heard of that? I have a call in to social security to find out. I am hoping that if that's the case I can start collecting on my late husband at 60 and then switch to my ex-husband's retirement when I'm 62 and keep working part time and collect from both of them. It says you collect 50% of the ex-spouse's retirement be ...

Scarey stuff. Many of us have been disappointed in our MT careers, on hard times, not enough in savings, outsourced, unemployed, dwindling paychecks, and entering that last 10 year (or so) push....need Social Security....now this. The defunding of Social Security disguised as a tax cut. Hope that @$2500 a year tax cut can be spun into gold! ...

Social Security is a progressive entitlement program created by Republicans and Democrats working together. Those conservatives ideologically opposed have always tried to get rid of it, but voters wouldn't let them because it has always served its purpose of protecting us from the possibility of destitution when we're too old to work. Now their tactic of destroying it by delaying necessary adjustments has successfully brought Social Security to the point of failure. Like a home ...

Your Social Security Just in case some of you young whippersnappers (& some older ones) didn't know this. It's easy to check out, if you don't believe it. Be sure and show it to your kids. They need a little history lesson on what's what and it doesn't matter whether you are Democrat or Republican. Facts are Facts!!! Our Social Security Franklin Roosevelt, a Democrat, introduced the Social Security (FICA) Program. He promised: 1.) That participation in the ...

Obama says he cannot guarantee Social Security checks will go out on August 3 By Corbett B. Daly President Obama on Tuesday said he cannot guarantee that retirees will receive their Social Security checks August 3 if Democrats and Republicans in Washington do not reach an agreement on reducing the deficit in the coming weeks. "I cannot guarantee that those checks go out on August 3rd if we haven't resolved this issue. Because there may simply not be the money in the coffers to do it, ...

aimed at seniors and disabled (AKA "deadbeats") by imposing hindrance/prohibition on routine fund allocations unless benefits are cut or their payroll tax rates are hiked. They are too cowardly to do it in broad daylight, so they've decided to take cover under the House rules guise. The link further exposes GOP demonization of handicapped/disabled Americans. They must have gotten bored with beating up on the poor and immigrants. "Empathy," GOP style. ...

This should be determined on necessity prices, not general cost of living numbers. Low gas prices will prevent seniors from eating. https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=919387074782964&pnref=story ***Low gas prices have skewed the cost of living numbers; however, the low gas prices do not have much to do with the necessities of seniors, disabled and disabled veterans. They do not get a cost of living increase based on the statistics being skewed down by low gas prices. ...

Bernie Sanders, Ind/Dem/Socialist, plans to propose legislation that would strengthen Social Security without cutting benefits to any of its beneficiaries. Sanders’ legislation would eliminate the income cap that currently exists in the payroll tax that does not tax income above $106,800:*****To keep Social Security strong for another 75 years, Sanders’ legislation would apply the same payroll tax already paid by more than nine out of 10 Americans to those with incomes over $250,000 ...

Rep Pete Sessions (R-Texas) is responsible for the Second Coming. Under the guise of "voluntary" choice, The SAFE scheme would quietly transition to full diversion of employer matching contributions into such private accounts over a 15 year period. Would everyone who trusts Wall Street and bankers to manage their retirement funds please raise their hands? Caution: Watch out for those familiar smoke and mirrors and bait and switch hazards dead ahead.& ...

The Social Security Administration paid $1 billion in benefits to individuals who did not have a Social Security Number (SSN), according to a new audit. The agency’s inspector general found errors in the government’s documentation for representative payees, otherwise known as individuals who receive retirement or disability payments on behalf of another person who is incapable of managing the benefits themselves. The audit released Friday found thousands of cases where there was no SSN ...

As I told my little Republican friend, biotch, vote and ye shall receive! For some reason, I don't think all the old people that voted in numbers this last election were actually planning for their Medicare to be cut! Today's upcoming report by the White House's fiscal commission is expected to include recommendations to raise the retirement age for Social Security and cut Medicare benefits -- two policy prescriptions that will be met with deep opposition from Democrats a ...

Seniors and disabled Americans looking forward to the annual increase in their Social Security check will be disappointed this year. Officials with the Social Security Administration have informed aides in Congress that the decision will be announced on October 15, just two weeks before the election, according to staffers and people familiar with the SSA's plan. This will be the second year in the History of SS that we won't be getting a cost of living raise. ...

Came across this little how-Washington-works explanation of the "firemen first" tactic. Note that stopping SS checks IS definitely among Obama's options, with the desirable results of allowing all other bills to be paid without fuss and making people very angry with the party they would blame most (insert your favorite here, but his is the GOP).

greedy grabbies impoverishing society through ceaseless taking, taking... remembering this will clue you in. BTW, while reading what these libertarian billionaires're up to, keep this in mind from lower down: "The entire projected 75-year shortfall in the Social Security trust funds that conservatives make such a big deal about is around one percent of GDP per year. We could make it up with modest tax increases on wealthy people like Druckenmiller. Since Social Security is financed by pay ...

Does anyone know how to report or prove disability fraud? I have someone who is receiving full disability benefits but is working under the table and playing sports all the while being "too disabled" to work. So many people can't get the disability they truly need and this is so unfair. TIA ...

I will try to be brief here. It is hard to put details of an extremely complicated life situation into words. My sister and I are in our 50s. In September, my neice committed suicide. Oh my, even typing that makes me cry. She was one week short of 27 years old. Not sure why this happened but that's another discussion. My sister was absolutely shattered. Got a call today that my sister collapsed at her job and is now in the psych ward, under se ...

1) I had a GAU evaluation (for general assistance in WA state) earlier this year and am now up for an ABD eval. (Aged, Blind, and Disabled assistance). The GAU examiner seemed to want to tank the exam and I found she lied in the report with respect to the ortho portion. I'm planning a letter to DSHS, her clinic's Director, and possibly the State Board. I had a later eval. at another clinic by a doctor who found a source of my ortho problem and thinks I need an MRI; also, I ...

I have been working at home as a transcriptionist for about 20 years - give or take a temp job from time to time. I would like to know if there are any social groups anyone knows of for those of us who work at home. I got into this field because I have a special needs child and needed to work at home. I have a hard time with the isolation of working at home and it seems like it would be great to work in an office, etc., but then I wouldn't have the flexibility and the other advantages of ...

By Howard Kurtz Washington Post Staff Writer Tuesday, July 27, 2010; 10:03 AM Question of the day: Should the New York Times, the Guardian and Der Spiegel have done it? Should they have collaborated with the organization known as WikiLeaks in publicizing 92,000 pages of secret documents about the war in Afghanistan? The White House wasted no time in denouncing the leaks as "irresponsible." The news organizations can argue, above all, that these documents provide vital information about ...

We are looking at maybe getting a home security system. Not that we have anything worth taking (except our lives), but we live in an area where more and more crime and home invasions are going on.

Police said more drug seekers are breaking into people's homes and in the paper crimes/particularly home invasions are on the rise. So we we ...
