I received two lump sum payments, but I have not spent all of the funds. I want to make a funeral arrangement and buy a car. How soon must I spend the lump sum payment.

The judge has awarded SSI back payments 3 months later she dies are we still awarded her back payment lump sum payout

Hi William,
I am so sorry to hear that. You may not be awarded the back pay but you should receive a one-time death payment and you might be eligible for survivors' benefits.
Hi,
I recently found out (on the SSA website) that I was approved for disability. It showed how much I will receive each month and said January 10th I will receive my first monthly pmt. There was no mention of back pay. I called the ss office and the lady I spoke to (very short answered and very rude) said there is nothing in her computer showing me getting back pay. Are there situations where someone does not get back pay at all? This would be devastating for my household as I have been out of work for over a year and am about to lose Everything. I applied for disability on 6/14/17 so I actually got approved pretty fast considering it takes years sometimes. I got approved with no attorney.. I don't know if that makes a difference but I'm literally in tears. Is it possible I'll get NO back pay or am I worried for nothing because it may just be too soon for it to show up in the ride lady's computer? Please help

Hi there,
I am so sorry to hear that, but it is indeed true that many people do not receive back pay. If you got approved quickly you will not be entitled to back pay, that's only for people who waited years for approval.

I am receiving my ssdi now... Here the question will or should getting back pay for both ssi & ssdi... The ssi is $8,800 & $27,150 thats before fees switch is 25% for the attorney... Already passed my 6 months waiting period received ssdi monthly now in Feb 1 for ssdi payment they said it will be installment...how much will that or is it figure? When does the ssi come in someone said after your installment monthly you will receive it and of course got told it will be installment payment all... So does ssi payment start...no set date which i was told...if figures are in order when are the days to receive it... No calendar date just like the payment each week when your birthday falls...

Hi Annie,
I could not say if you would be owed back pay for SSI, if you receive benefits based on your work record and they are more than $750 a month, you may not be eligible for SSI.
I was approved for ssd in August I received my first check in Nov for October, I still have not received my back pay, and when I called them to find out what was going on, they said they are waiting to see if I owe money to the government, which I don't. Can they do this? Is it legal? And if they can how long can they hold it?
In reply to I was approved for ssd in by Jo (not verified)
Hi Jo,
It usually takes about four months to receive back pay after you start receiving monthly payments for SSDI, so you may receive your back pay around Februrary. They can check if you owe money to the government when they do that.
What are the requirements you need to get some of your back pay is there a list of things that will show you what they will give back pay for if you need it
In reply to What are the requirements you by Judy (not verified)
Hi Judy,
I'm not aware of any list, but if it's something like food, shelter, or transportation, the SSA may be able to pay back pay earlier than the scheduled times due to dire need.
