After 12 months, SSI eligibility has been granted to a 19 year-old but is pending starting payments due to Special needs trust(SNT) with 1500.00 funded by parents. Caseworker sent special needs trusts and bank statement showing funds to the regional department for a decision if funds were to being included assets ( even though they are not over the $2000 limit). It is now 15 months waiting, and multiple trips to the local SS office including speaking to a senior worker who spoke with a supervisor.
