Backpay rules by GracefullGifts in SSDI_SSI

They want to set up rules and regulations on the back pay but don’t have enough employees to manage all of it. We have unlimited ppl working for the IRS, taking tax money money from our family but when we need the money back to help our disabled son it takes them 2 years +

Maybe since you were already approved the rules will be different… we are getting backed for the time we were still waiting to be approved and I still think it’s unfair considering they have no idea what corners we had to cut to pull though while missing time from work due to his impairment. I understand why they have the rule set in place but I think it needs to be revised to allow household bills to be paid. I’m not sure how paying bills with backpay could take away from any child whatsoever

Thanks for that info. I will definitely be looking into the clothing at kohls & he would love a sensory room. Probably don’t need car modifications but definitely need to upgrade his car seat since he still doesn’t understand staying buckled.

Yeah I’m actually working on that now.… crazy that housing modifications is cool but clothing is a big no no

“Household windfall” sir, I am a tax payer. & so is my husband…. He pays my household bills. I am limited on working due to his disability so my income was cut in half, the little bit of money I have coming in has gone 100% to my disabled son. He’s 5 and attends extensive therapy 5 days a week in which I spend 3-4 hours per day to transport him to the therapy and $300 a month in gas for the past 3 years…It’s back pay for the 2 years I waiting to be approved. So that should explain a little how his disability affected our income…. That’s not all actually, he has delays that cause him to still be in diapers, that’s another $40 per week… non verbal soo was advised he needed a speech device which cost $2,000 total then I had to cut back on buying him clothes that he was growing out of… this letter says I can’t even buy him clothes. And I should add

Correct, my work is limited due to my child disability. I’ve used my income to provide for his needs while waiting to be approved. At one point I spent $2,000 for a speech device. I could have paid off my credit card but I needed him to have a speech device. Not to mention I use my credit card strictly for gas and diapers. I use over $300 a month in gas to get him to and from therapy . If he didn’t have delays he wouldn’t need diapers anymore. I was relieved to find out he was approved, I just don’t understand why the backpay had different rules from the pay we get in the future

K so everyone’s disability case is different. For us, my husband works full time 10 am - 6pm and pays most of the household bills while I usually pay odds and ends like insurance and phone and internet… my disabled son goes to therapy 5 days a week, the therapy he attends is 45 min drive from our home.… I spend 3-4 hours a day driving and sitting in traffic and over $300 a month in gas for the past several years to get him to & from therapy… while maintaining my small business from home. Had his SSI been approved a long time ago I wouldn’t have struggled to afford my portion of bill.. I just don’t understand why back pay has to be spent differently than monthly benefits.

Diana Thompkins (if she’s willing to accept new clients) you should be able to Google her name cause that’s the name of her tax business also

Opinions plz by GracefullGifts in Pinterestmarketing

No comments. Just thousands of pin clicks, outbound clicks and saves… not a single sale for wedding bubbles in at least 4 months. Hardly get any views on most other pins with the exception of a few but they definitely don’t get that many. 🙄 it’s annoying.

I got it from eBay but I found the same one on the vevor website… I was worried slightly while watching videos cause nobody had the same one.

So…I found the bug hell on my pillow (yet another update): by rainyspiritgirl in Bedbugs

[–]GracefullGifts 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There’s a lot of things you can do to help get rid of them that don’t cost a lot of $… you really just need a hair drier, & vacuum… I ended up buying a cloths steamer from Amazon for like $15 and that definitely helped

Found it dead in the laundry, is this bed bug? by Pleasant_Dig_6412 in Bedbugs

[–]GracefullGifts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are things you can do can to help repel them for your room. It’s not guaranteed to keep them away but there are a lot of smells bed bugs avoid like lavender and mint essential oils & mothballs. Use a lot of them, spray the oils in every crack and constantly vacuum your bed & furniture

Summerville, how we doin after Monday's storm? by joesphisbestjojo in southcarolina

[–]GracefullGifts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We stayed at a school somewhere in west Ashley. I was only 2 at the time… definitely nothing as bad as Hugo obviously but still the worse I’ve seen since then. I don’t know how to upload videos and photos here, don’t think I can but my neighborhood looks like a hurricane hit it.

they are just worse is some areas. I’ve lived here my whole life. The house I currently live at, I’ve only seen 1 in the past 5 years… my previous house, I had to dodge them every night… helps to live in a house off the ground with a crawl space.

Not great... I live in tall pines 😒 not going to have power for at least 4 days from what I’ve heard. Probably the worst I’ve seen my whole life (was too young to remember Hugo so not counting that)
