Hi Mike,

Everyone's case is different, so I can't say for sure. You may want to speak with a SSA rep regarding that.

Hi, 1 month ago my mother begged me to change her payee to me and take my sister off as payee. The reason it had to be changed is because she was letting my moms checks be deposited into her personal account and she was taking money from my moms ssi checks. When she got the letter from social security that she is no longer the payee, she's not giving my mom the money thats left. She even has threatened my mom. What can we do about this situation? Thanks

Hi there,
You may want to consider taking legal action at this point, you may want to refer to your state's laws on matters like this.

My brother just turned 18 how would I go about switching payee to him and getting him set up? He is disabled and will be attending college this fall so I’ll need help with his survivors benefits from my mom that passed two years ago. Please help any info would be appreciated.

I just received a letter from Social Security stating they would like to appoint someone besides me to be representative for my son. Why would that be. Everything has been handled correctly.

Hi Patricia,
That is very odd--you can always call the SSA toll free at 1-800-772-1213 to get the exact reason why they want you to change.

I haven't been my son's representative payee since he began receiving disability. He is now 19. I received a letter saying they wanted to replace me with a different Payee. I have done everything according to the rules and wonder why that would be?
