I have children and their father has recently went for a hearing is waiting on a decision. I was told that the kids will qualify for benefits. I have several questions.
How is the amount determined?
What are the rules for the cutoff age to recieve benefits?
Do the children recieve back pay as well?
What steps if any do I need to take to set up their case?
If a child is 18 but still in high school do they qualify, and for how long?
My 17 yr old is requesting their full amount of ss survivors and i still have children until 16 do i have to give her the full amount cause shes demanding it?

Hi Angela,
I would recommend speaking to a SSA representative.
My husband is disabled and has full custody of 2 of his girls from a previous marriage and his ex wife has full custody of the other 2 girls. We also have a child of our own. There is no child support order in place since they each have custody of 2 children. Will all of the children be eligible for benefits?

They could qualify for auxiliary benefits off of your husband's disability.

Hi there,
they may be eligible but their benefits would be limited to 180% of your benefit amount.

Hi Crystal,
he may, depending on how much SSI he is eligible for and how much he would receive in SSDI benefits through his father.

Hi there,
Depending on how much in SSI your child receives, he may be able to receive both.

I can't really say, if your child's father is receiving income-based benefits rather than benefits based off of your work record, your child would not be eligible for benefits based off of his disability.
I received a letter stating that I was approved for ssdi but I asked about auxiliary benefits for my 2 children and they told me that my kids wouldn't get anything even though they do hit all the marks for qualifying. I'm not sure why they said that and am confused.
They gave the reason as there is no money for auxiliary benefits as to why my 2 children can't get anything

Hi Shellie,
I am sorry to hear that. If your children are both above 18, that could be the reason why. If not, I really can't accurately say why they wouldn't be approved.
My children's father was just approved for disability @ $535 per month. I am going to apply for auxilary benefits for the children. How much would they be eligible for?

Hello,
Every case is different, so I really can't say for sure.
