SSI HASNT GONE UP HERE IN ALVIN,TX FOR OVER 50 YRS!!!! IT NEEDS TO GO UP, WAY UP BUT ITS NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN IF SSI HASNT GONE UP IN WELL OVER 53 YEARS THEN ITS NEVER GOING TO GO UP BUT LETS HOPE IM WRONG!
I only get SSI 943 a month. I never ever saw a 1000 on my SSI check my rent 850.00 and nobody else helps me with rent food or transportation or mycell phone.i am beyond poor Pennsylvania is always left out of any financial help.
s\Sad to hear I know the pain was literally living off of $1100 for the past c ouple years only because of child support $200/mo and $903 SSD dependant benefit for my daughter form her father sadly broke his back falling off a high ladder @ work many years ago. Just saying it is very frustrating. Judeth I will pray God blesses you with more. As I mentioned earlier a diff comment check out Bob Diamond Overages can do that pretty simple w/ his help I will be getting on it soon plus other business ventures been wanting to do over the years just been hard to start due to my income. But you could do away with the SSI & get more after just one deal than most people get in a year's salary. Pray you check it out, GOD Bless can literally change your life. :)
better start a business bob diamond get more after one deal thank your SSI, just saying I am not going to sit here & get this all my life. Trust I am grateful been a blessing since I been waiting since 2017 when I first became disabled-SUCKS!! But I can still use my brain and do a little here and there to make this work. Pray you get all you need, It's not fun having to depend on such a littel amount of income.
Why aren't these people being helped ,those people in DC Zand illegals get every thing ...This is a shamfeful thing in AMERICA!!! WHAT A SHAME!!! ...TRUMP PLEASE HELP!!
me too I just started receiving it and waiting on my SSD to finished being calculated cause had workers comp and it's been since 2020 when I first applied.
@@ellencookman-EstatePlanningSNT Would participating in a paid medical stomach flu vaccine trial for 24 months reduce my SSDI benefits? I will be earning 360 per month. My FRA is April 2025.
The $2000 asset limit for single/$3200 married needs to be raised to count for inflation!!! HUD needs to change the rule that the whole distribution from Special Needs Trust counts as income to calculate monthly rent payments from the tenant . Since I work not receiving Social Security or Medicaid I decided not to create a Special Needs Trust to receive my $325,000 inheritance. I been in HUD Permanent Supportive Housing program before receiving my inheritance. I chose to received the inherited assets in my name since the assets do not count against being in HUD housing. I am am lucky to have a disability and not be shackled with stupid government asset and income limit rules!!!
How is that? My son is deseable and I want to rent my house to him but I can’t. I live in North Carolina. I will give to him free but I have to pay a mortgage. I am retired and 77 years old.
I promise to be there for you and you will not be disappointed in the medical records and disability claim I will do everything you ask or tell me to do God bless you
Where do you get this that people are getting $1,100 SSI people in Alabama don't get with $943 so I don't know where you're getting your information you must be out there in California somewhere but we don't get that
Thank you for this information. I just had to do a review for SSI for my daughter in May. The interviewer asked me about how much she paid the household for rent. I told him It was average $750 a month depending on how much utilities were because we split it 4 ways. He did not mention anything about the $334/month Federal rule and also did not restore any of the deduction from her SSI. Maybe it will change in September.
Hi ellen, i feel so devastated, thata how much , they get.. its dirt poor and hardships the govt. Treating the people,.the poor this is why prostitution and crime theif are happening dont you think.. its whata happening in my neighborhood.. this is crazy a solution must be plan. If you would im a one man army trying to get a mass appeal, networking to advocate and speak out raise awareness, that this is going on, and let the people know those likely bit more furtunate and us dirt poor trying to put food in our plates. Its really heart devastation, mind buggling, really upsetting to us.. help me help us all, feel more comfortable, a worth while to livw honest, and faith to our goventment.. thank you,,,
Thank you for a very informative video. Since last July Ssi in Placervill CA , reduced $300 dollars of my mom’s check just because she lives in a special zip code. I helped her to appeal the case twice but they rejected her request twice. She has to deal with credit card debt now because of not receiving $300 monthly 😱 I think Ssi should check some of the branches and help some of the very vulnerable people in the area.
Ssi is paying me $190 a month that is a slap in the face I want and increase. I paid my taxes and they said I owe X amount of dollars and it’s not true and I wrote them letters after letters and showed them the receipts that I paid it off, so they’re saying I owe back taxes but I can’t work. Of course I’m confined to a wheelchair and I’m going in for surgery December 15 but three payments behind my house payments so I need to get caught up and I need at least 2500 a month to survive when going to be released automatically in my Wells Fargo bank.
Hi just want to say that SSI is now suffering with everything so high that we have to go with our had to let go of cable no TV this is sad for a disabled seniors.but thank you for the info
Great video !!! You forgot to include that the shelter you receive from a nonprofit is exempt from the $344.00, also any energy assistance you receive from a nonprofit is exempt from that list.

I Margaret Jane Gardea,I do receive SSI but I only receive 943.00 my question is how much will I get on 2025,I have been receiving SSI since the 1980 s,I do pay my rent is 820:00 and light 30:00 cell phone 30:00 and to wash is only 10:09,after that I have no money left,can you please help me so I can receive more,I am disabled ever since I was 5😢 since
@ellencookman-EstatePlanningSNT Can the reduced rent (.e.g., $375/mo) include utilities like water, electricity, and garbage and be above PMV ($334) and not trigger ISM calculations? Or are utilities considered separately?
How can you keep your check,if you pay rent? The rent,would come out of it,unless you can work,then they count half your check and make up difference,so you don't make out
Those complaining about amount of ssi they get wow at least you get some. My wife and I make 75$ to much to get anything. You end up with more than we do
It's not fair that they only talk about the senior citizens getting a raise but you guys need to start helping people that's under the age of 65 and receiving SSI in the amount of 943 and people on the on disability are only receiving 937 it's not fair to us that you guys are not helping us that way that you are helping senior citizens we are people too so you need to start helping us in that same way so please stop worrying about them I say again and start helping people that are under 65 because we are people too. As a new person that's making a decision on everything please I say again stop worrying about them only and help us as we need the help too I really can't say have a truly blessed day because I'll be lying to myself I was taught that God says he makes a decision on everything so I trust in him that you will make the right decision as he taught you!!!
I only get 940 some dollars from SSI I've never gotten more than that ever since I've been SSI when I first started off I was getting less it would be nice to get more SSI it would help me out a whole lot better but I know maybe
What about the fact that if your disabled and get food stamps when they increase the yearly cost of living for ssi (which for many years it was under 5 dollars or 0$ )they take a big chunk of you food stamps so in reality you got no increase and now they take a larger % out of food stamps so now you loose more food $ than the increase ssi total (so you basically got no cost of living increase and your food help also decreased when you add it all up,smh )can we talk about not decreasing our food stamps everytime there's a cost of living increase please
Agree. And all ssi recipients, ss, ssdi should get the max snap benefit. Maybe those getting ssdi of 3800 can not, lol. Say anything over 2500 doesnt get snap. Why have snap if youre gonna constantly be taking it away, its supposed to help. Snap needs to be $500-600 per person a month. Its not cash so you would think they cohld feel less judgemental about that, considering its less likely to be used for drugs.
I think it change, because I looked at the application .It ask to list all assets you can sell, like home, car ext. Food, clothing, ect. That's never be ask before. So it sounds like you have to be homeless to quilify. ????
In this video we use the California SSI number of $1183/month; the federal amount is $943/month, and some states (including California) supplement this very low amount.
I had the max ssi money but they took that away cause they said they paid me 7k over and is having me to pay it back like what the fuck I know that's not supposed to happen I need help to get that back !!!
I was on SSI low income but I was getting $943 a month they cut me down I took $307 for me saying I owe them the money I don't think so but something's got to be done they need to take shelter off of it
When I got my first SSI back in 1988 all I received was $243.00 a month now they're give more than when I received mine. I the presidents should give us what's owed back all those years .. so.$700 x so is $25,200 per year they owe us.. it took 36 yrs to get not even close to $1,320 a month. Doesn't sound right, all congress and us Treasury needs go back to school!
PS. If I do receive a chunk of inheritance money, can I open the special needs trust myself? (for me to use). My mom is already senile, so it’s too late for her to set that up.
Yes, you should be able to create your own 1st party Special Needs Trust to protect your public benefits; I describe it in this video: How to Receive an Inheritance While on Public Benefits
I Margaret Jane Gardea,I am reciveing SSI,I am an Epiltice ever since I was 5 years old,I am taking my meds,but I only receive 943:00 a month and that is not helping to pay my rent 820:00 my light 30:00 my cell phone also 30:00 my wash is 10:00 and that leavese around 5 or 10 to buy for what I need for,can you please help to receive more for the year of 2025 From Margaret Jane Garrea
I am supposed to inherit the house I live in. The yearly property tax is around $10,000. So if I got SSI, I would only have around $4,000 left, for the year??? What if my brother succeeds in stealing all my inheritance money? Where else can I get money? 😭😭
@@leaannshook7207 I’ve thought of that. The problem is, he’s also trying to steal my house- and if he’s the landlord, I guarantee he won’t allow anyone but me to live there ☹️ But even if I owned it, I’ve heard creepy stories of renters who refuse to leave. The renters laws are so strong, some people have been unable to kick a person out of their own home!!! So I don’t want to risk that 😱
That sounds like a difficult situation. I usually recommend that parents leave cash along with a property to pay for property taxes, upkeep of the property, etc. Hopefully you’ll inherit more funds for these purposes.
I've been disabled for 30 yrs from an accident in 1998 an I'm still only getting below the amount I should be come on we are living in poverty if u can't work u should get SSDI automatically instead of all the rif raf
I am 66 I have a dental problem where I need a oral surgeon it is detriment to my health it is killing me I've been trying for 5 years and I have a 13-year-old daughter that I had when I was 55 help
I don’t think so; you need to be a resident of that state to receive the benefits. But the other country might have their own benefits you can utilize.
In this video we use the California SSI number of $1183/month; the federal amount is $943/month, and some states (including California) supplement this very low amount.
I moved to Texas..before I moved there I was getting 1058.00 Texas took money from me i am not even making..people on SSI get more than me..i get about 728.00 in social security disability and SSI gave me 333.00 but Oklahoma never gave that back I am not even making it i don’t know what to do I’m homeless because of this my friend has been letting me stay with them
2022 I filed for SSDI I was approved at that time I was 65 years old getting 420 dollars and 160 SSI now I got an letter my FRA will be June 2024 66 and 6 months I work 28 yrs as an service worker and paid into FICA I called and placed on hold and I cannot get an appointment 😢 living in Columbus Ohio
I’m sorry to hear this. I recommend you speak with a public benefits attorney in your area. You might want to start with this website: specialneedsanswers.com/ohio-special-needs-planners
As soon as you're approved for an SSDI claim your monthly payment amount is calculated as if you were FRA. If you're only receiving SSI, say if your work credits were expired when you applied, then you would be forced to retire at the earliest possible age which would be 62 and you will be stuck at that amount for life.
I have comatose combative seizures and I am married I haven't received the 2000 that you are talking about and seeing is believing so the way I see it it's all lies I'm not getting my hopes up 943$ don't really pay much with it being only income
I'm 37 going to be 38 October 4 I'm on ssi and I only get 943 a month that is it I don't own anything I struggle ever month only get 26 in ebt and my bills are a lot rent water electric and the things in virginia are terrible and I don't get any help with food or clothes and shoes there is so much that needs help
Then I need $943 deposited in my bank instead of $190 on the first. When is this going to happen? It needs to stop they’ve been giving me $190 for 10 years and I cannot work I’m disabled and I’m 75 years old, when is the money going to be deposited and Wells Fargo it’s a automatic payment
I want your help with my new disability that I could have the help to get on the ssi that you are offering to get my room and food medicine and start from there
Today it's. Sep 30 I just I get. $480.dollars. N mi banco account always they send me $943 dollars. What happened to seguro social Americano SSI SSA veteran.
Disabled and cant even get SSI because they say my SSDI is too high to qualify and its barely over. I get $65 for EBT. Failing fast in this economy. With this inflation they shoulnt have an SSDI limit at all.
Ssi only supplements me a 100. And have no countable assets. Ive worked since ive paid into SS since i was 16 and now in my 60s. I know ive paid more in than able to get. With the prices the way the we need more help just not line the pockets of those who dont need it
$1100 a month, what can that do but over the course of time that can really add up. That was the last thing she said and she is wrong, it can't add up that much seeing as you can only have $2000 worth of assets, you have more than that and you lose your benefits. The way I see it is the program is designed to help those who have nothing and that is good but because of that limitation you will always have nothing. It should be a qualifying factor but once you qualify being able to save, in and of itself, should not be a reason to cut you off, I don't mean that you can go get a full time job and keep the benefits but if someone were able to reduce the bills that have to be paid leaving something left to save should be okay if it's more than $2000 as long as the money being saved is to eventually get you off SSI, like starting a business.
If she thinks anyone can save a dime at the end of a week living on SSI then she should try it. She would be singing a different tune in no time. I think it would be a real eye opener if all politicians had to try living on the 943 that we get for a month. I'm pretty sure they would change the way they think about the SSI program.
With rent food and groceries so high. SSI maximum should be at least $1200 $1300 these days. It's hard living off off $900. It's just not enough.
I know right!! And they hardly give you any food stamps either, all I get is $165 a month😧

Why have snap if youre gonna constantly be taking it away, its supposed to help. Snap needs to be $500-600 per person a month. Its not cash so you would think they cohld feel less judgemental about that, considering its less likely to be used for drugs.
Where are people living for $334.00 a month, even if they are living with somebody? Most rooms cost $200 a week.
They need to increase the COLA amounts for SSA retirement recipients!!!
What we be getting per month increase
More money please this century people gonna get beyond poverty's benchmark !?.
I think it change, because I looked at the application .It ask to list all assets you can sell, like home, car ext. Food, clothing, ect.
That's never be ask before.
So it sounds like you have to be homeless to quilify. ????
I don't get that much
I ONLY FET $460 IN SSI BENEFITS 😢
AND $560 SSDI
In what state do you get up to $1,183? I thought the max is $943?
In this video we use the California SSI number of $1183/month; the federal amount is $943/month, and some states (including California) supplement this very low amount.
The Moon !
I had the max ssi money but they took that away cause they said they paid me 7k over and is having me to pay it back like what the fuck I know that's not supposed to happen I need help to get that back !!!

When
dont hold your breath
I was on SSI low income but I was getting $943 a month they cut me down I took $307 for me saying I owe them the money I don't think so but something's got to be done they need to take shelter off of it
Is the $2,000.00 in bank account max includes the $943.00 monthly payment so you really only have $1,057.00 in your saving to not go over the max.
When I got my first SSI back in 1988 all I received was $243.00 a month now they're give more than when I received mine. I the presidents should give us what's owed back all those years .. so.$700 x so is $25,200 per year they owe us.. it took 36 yrs to get not even close to $1,320 a month. Doesn't sound right, all congress and us Treasury needs go back to school!
PS. If I do receive a chunk of inheritance money, can I open the special needs trust myself? (for me to use). My mom is already senile, so it’s too late for her to set that up.
I surely haven't gotten an over payment.. also $943. 00. I could use that 1.083. a month ..
Yes, you should be able to create your own 1st party Special Needs Trust to protect your public benefits; I describe it in this video: How to Receive an Inheritance While on Public Benefits
@@ellencookman-EstatePlanningSNT Thank you!
No , 😮
How come I'm not getting the 1180 a month
Believe it if u I received it. SSI suppose to send a letter or SSN

Today is Monday and you said there was going to be a deposit. My bank account had $5 in it.
I am supposed to inherit the house I live in. The yearly property tax is around $10,000. So if I got SSI, I would only have around $4,000 left, for the year??? What if my brother succeeds in stealing all my inheritance money? Where else can I get money? 😭😭
Rent out a room
@@leaannshook7207 I’ve thought of that. The problem is, he’s also trying to steal my house- and if he’s the landlord, I guarantee he won’t allow anyone but me to live there ☹️ But even if I owned it, I’ve heard creepy stories of renters who refuse to leave. The renters laws are so strong, some people have been unable to kick a person out of their own home!!! So I don’t want to risk that 😱
That sounds like a difficult situation. I usually recommend that parents leave cash along with a property to pay for property taxes, upkeep of the property, etc. Hopefully you’ll inherit more funds for these purposes.
All I get is 963 it don't make it good for us when you pay almost half of it out towards rent lights propane an oil
So rent would be 334?
I have a few questions about my situation
I've been disabled for 30 yrs from an accident in 1998 an I'm still only getting below the amount I should be come on we are living in poverty if u can't work u should get SSDI automatically instead of all the rif raf
how much is raise on SSI $943.00 - survivor benefit $1462.00
I am 66 I have a dental problem where I need a oral surgeon it is detriment to my health it is killing me I've been trying for 5 years and I have a 13-year-old daughter that I had when I was 55 help
Don't have SSI on regular Social Security why are getting more than me
Can I move out of the USA and still receive said???
I don’t think so; you need to be a resident of that state to receive the benefits. But the other country might have their own benefits you can utilize.
Who gets 1100 a month 943 here and haven’t heard of any higher
In this video we use the California SSI number of $1183/month; the federal amount is $943/month, and some states (including California) supplement this very low amount.
I make 4000000 under the table do i get ssi
Please send me the link for the application interview and see me through it that would be the best support for this clam that I have for you
Why did they take the clothes away out of the expenses?
How come in Louisiana it's so much little than the rest of the country
What if my son‘s fair share is under $334?
Luv your voice!
I moved to Texas..before I moved there I was getting 1058.00 Texas took money from me i am not even making..people on SSI get more than me..i get about 728.00 in social security disability and SSI gave me 333.00 but Oklahoma never gave that back I am not even making it i don’t know what to do I’m homeless because of this my friend has been letting me stay with them
I to only get $943 and I still can’t get by and live
2022 I filed for SSDI I was approved at that time I was 65 years old getting 420 dollars and 160 SSI now I got an letter my FRA will be June 2024 66 and 6 months I work 28 yrs as an service worker and paid into FICA I called and placed on hold and I cannot get an appointment 😢 living in Columbus Ohio
I’m sorry to hear this. I recommend you speak with a public benefits attorney in your area. You might want to start with this website: specialneedsanswers.com/ohio-special-needs-planners
As soon as you're approved for an SSDI claim your monthly payment amount is calculated as if you were FRA. If you're only receiving SSI, say if your work credits were expired when you applied, then you would be forced to retire at the earliest possible age which would be 62 and you will be stuck at that amount for life.
I have comatose combative seizures and I am married I haven't received the 2000 that you are talking about and seeing is believing so the way I see it it's all lies I'm not getting my hopes up 943$ don't really pay much with it being only income
I KNOW MANY PEOPLE ON DISABILITY SOCIAL SECURITY AND THEY CAN WORK JUST REFUSE TO!
Why do I get _$101 a month on SSI. and nobody help me pay my electric are gas are rent .
I only get 843.00 per month
Can you get ssi if you are receiving ss ?
Usually you can get additional SSI if your SSDI amount is under the SSI limit - in CA that’s $1,182.
I'm 37 going to be 38 October 4 I'm on ssi and I only get 943 a month that is it I don't own anything I struggle ever month only get 26 in ebt and my bills are a lot rent water electric and the things in virginia are terrible and I don't get any help with food or clothes and shoes there is so much that needs help
I'm still waiting for this good news she was saying she had. And I really would like to know what country she lives in that pays 1100 a month.
Then I need $943 deposited in my bank instead of $190 on the first. When is this going to happen? It needs to stop they’ve been giving me $190 for 10 years and I cannot work I’m disabled and I’m 75 years old, when is the money going to be deposited and Wells Fargo it’s a automatic payment
I want your help with my new disability that I could have the help to get on the ssi that you are offering to get my room and food medicine and start from there
I get 200 something on the first and 500 on the third wish they live on that
Today it's. Sep 30 I just I get. $480.dollars. N mi banco account always they send me $943 dollars. What happened to seguro social Americano SSI SSA veteran.
I'm in Arkansas , 943.00. who is getting 1, 183.00 ?
Disabled and cant even get SSI because they say my SSDI is too high to qualify and its barely over. I get $65 for EBT. Failing fast in this economy. With this inflation they shoulnt have an SSDI limit at all.
I am at 1037 but disability
Ssi only supplements me a 100. And have no countable assets. Ive worked since ive paid into SS since i was 16 and now in my 60s. I know ive paid more in than able to get. With the prices the way the we need more help just not line the pockets of those who dont need it
What about Texas is it the same where you are talking about
This is ridiculous...no one abides by the rules of these deductions. Most ppl pay their necessities themselves without relying on others.
$1100 a month, what can that do but over the course of time that can really add up. That was the last thing she said and she is wrong, it can't add up that much seeing as you can only have $2000 worth of assets, you have more than that and you lose your benefits. The way I see it is the program is designed to help those who have nothing and that is good but because of that limitation you will always have nothing. It should be a qualifying factor but once you qualify being able to save, in and of itself, should not be a reason to cut you off, I don't mean that you can go get a full time job and keep the benefits but if someone were able to reduce the bills that have to be paid leaving something left to save should be okay if it's more than $2000 as long as the money being saved is to eventually get you off SSI, like starting a business.
If she thinks anyone can save a dime at the end of a week living on SSI then she should try it. She would be singing a different tune in no time.
I think it would be a real eye opener if all politicians had to try living on the 943 that we get for a month. I'm pretty sure they would change the way they think about the SSI program.
1100.00? SSI? WHERE?
THANK YOU FOR YOUR INFORMATION AND GBU EMANUEL AMEN AND AMEN ❤
Shame on politicians for thinking we can live on below 1000 a month who are they kidding
