My sister, who is disabled and no longer able to work, has been trying to get SIS. But she has been turned away from Social Security offices in Hillsboro, Oregon, after being told, “It’s Hispanic Day. We can’t help YOU!”
Anyone out there have information about illegal aliens receiving SS benefits?
Illegal immigration ping!
ping
SatinDoll, are you positive that you want to know?
What’sa mat’ta? Think I can’t handle it?
Can you handle this?
FACT: Mexicans living in Mexico are collecting SSI.
“Anyone out there have information about illegal aliens receiving SS benefits?”
SSI, certainly. I couldn’t say how many are drawing off someone else’s SS# they’re using. In fact, I was told by a social security employee that not being able to speak English bumps up your qualification status. Being uneducated, poor work history, lack of skills do as well. Most of them get it for ‘depression’ almost instantly. Many illegals also have their anchor babies on SSI for ADHD, or some other psycho babble malady. Remember the gal who refuged in the Chicago church? Her kid had all that stuff and was getting treatment for all of it, when what the kid needs is a father and to be in Mexico with those who think like his mama.
But a US citizen who has worked his whole life including many vets, that’s another story. Be ready to wait YEARS while you’re sick and have no medical care.
Here’s some of them:

7803. citizen Texas With the BILLIONS of dollars GIVEN to the immigrants every year and the illegal aliens that now get social security benefits why are the disabled of this country being treated like second class citizens as if we don’t even exist? Why take care of people that aren’t even contributing to the funds that are being paid to them? It is time for WE THE PEOPLE to stand and in one VOICE demand our Government to give the disabled more money to at least let them make it through the month instead of just being able to make it through the DAY that their check comes in on!!
7794. Citizen KY 40475 Been waiting over 3 years. Now I’m aproved and faceing. Evection! better late then never?
7788. Citizen n.y. I have been disabled for the last five years and have been trying to get MY S.S.D. Why, in God’s name, can’t I get it? It’s MY money and it was taken out of MY checks when I did work
7773. Citizen NY I don’t even know where to start.I’ve been unable to work since 2005.I was denied in December of 2005.It is now July of 2008 and i’m STILL waiting for a hearing.My wife,my 14 year old son,and my 13 year old daughter appreciate the government pushing us into poverty and homelessness.
Once upon a time when I was in the Navy, a coworker and Spanish citizen, was an employee of U.S.Government. Much of the material we obtained for the CBs small construction projects on base was purchased locally and she handled all the Spanish language paperwork and contracts. She paid U.S. social security taxes and expected to receive SS payments upon retirement. So I am not shocked that Mexicans retired to Mexico can get SSI.
What I want to know is why the children of illegals here can get it but my sister can not?
Because the politicians have instructed the SSI bureaucrats to writes rules and mandates that give it to them.
“It’s Hispanic Day. We can’t help YOU!”
That’s illegal.
