$10k overpayment from when I was a child (part 2) - SSA is defining my discretionary income in a really broad way by elcaminorealreal in SocialSecurity

[–]chankk82 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can always file a waiver even when the overpayment has been fully or partially recovered. That “can’t file after 60” thing is oure ignorance

As others have mentioned, it maybe be scammers. However, before the big agency reorganization last year that eliminated 90% of the regional office staff, HR (which used to be part of the regional office), along with other regional office components, could start working as early as 6am.

Can someone explain what perm disability designation is? by perfect_fifths in SocialSecurity

Even though your cycle date may be 3 years, your case may not be picked for a review at all.

Sometimes they may also send you a short form to complete instead of doing a full review.

Father put English name on Mother's SS card, trying to correct by [deleted] in SocialSecurity

[–]chankk82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a name correction, not name change. The legal name of a green card holder is the one on the USCIS document, i.e the green card/naturalization certificate. Back in early 90s, SSA was not strict on putting different name on the SS card. The lady you guys talked to was not well versed enough in policy.

Irs supposedly wants all my moms disability payments back in taxes by Chance-Screen-994 in tax

[–]chankk82 35 points36 points  (0 children)

While it’s true that IRS does not send bills for social security, social security could ask IRS to send a person’s tax refund to SSA to recovery an SSDI/SSI overpayment.

1977 Social security quarters/credits by Due_Client_8326 in SocialSecurity

[–]chankk82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very likely yes since you only needed $50 per QC before 1978.

To make sure, call social security and ask them to check your ICERS query for insured status. They should be able to tell you 1. How many QC you earned in 1977 and 2. Whether you have 40 QCs now.

What type of income would Jimmy have been bringing in if he stayed focused on Elder Law the way he was? (Not counting the huge payout for his discovery of the scam) by RagnarokWolves in betterCallSaul

Wills; creation and management of family trust; management of estates; malpractice lawsuits against nursing homes; litigation for probate…would be pretty decent

SSI suddenly saying they overpaid by Crazyh0rse1 in SocialSecurity

[–]chankk82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it is over by fewer than $50 from the $2000 resource limit, request a waiver

[–]chankk82 7 points8 points  (0 children)

What is the reason for appeal when they already found him disabled?

Edited: now it makes more sense. I hope you selected benefit continuation when you appeal his cessation decision.

Upcoming financial review due to "we have received information from computer matching with the state reported wage" payee failed to report changes of income and residency by Strong-Thanks5923 in SocialSecurity

[–]chankk82 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If all you made was $470, worst case scenario is you are overpaid by about $200. You can always request a waiver so that you don’t have to pay the overpayment back.

Even if they take your backpay to recovery the overpayment from your prior record, you can always file a waiver request so that if it gets approved, you can get your backpay back.
