Hi,

I can only answer questions about Social Security benefits, and stimulus payments are not Social Security benefits. You may want to refer to the IRS's website for information about stimulus payments: https://www.irs.gov/coronavirus-tax-relief-and-economic-impact-payments.

What Could Be The Reason Why My Mother's Benefits Stopped?

My mom has been receiving social security benefits from my dad for sometime now. She does not qualify to receive benefits of her own. My dad passed away about 4 years ago. She continued to receive the same amount as before his death until 2 months ago when her checks stopped coming. She did not get any notification about it.
What could be the reason for this? And what should she do? She is a U.S. Citizen but does not leave in the States and has been hard to get any information over the phone.

Hi,

I'm sorry for your loss.

Would My Benefits Be Reduced If I Get Married And My Spouse Is Working Full-Time?

hello,
I am 62 years old and recently applied for SSI retirement( April) my question lies in my current relationship with a much younger woman, 35, whom I hope to marry soon. She works full time and has two young children that live with us full time (under 10) and am curious how getting married would impact my SSI benefits. Would they be reduced given her income ? And would the kids be eligible for benefits under my SSI? Thank you

Thank you

Is It Possible That My Brother Will Be Able To Receive Social Security Retirement Benefits?

Hi, I have a brother who was born in 1964. He worked on and off, mostly off, until age 32, which included a short time as a police officer for a wealthy town. At age 32 he decided working wasn't for him and attempted to get social security disability retirement for a non-existent back injury - and was denied by social security. He did not appeal. Instead he stopped working entirely. He was granted a very small pension payment monthly in exchange for permanent retirement as a police officer for that town.
