she is apparently on SSI disability which has a means (income) test
Let no good deed go un-punished.
That’s despicable, considering there are so many who abuse the system by getting their kids labeled as “learning disabled” in order to cash in.
White woman amputee, in constant pain, with a genuine disability who legitimately cannot work, might have known.
Probably a Christian, too.
No good deed
This stinks! They should be going after fakers who scam Social Security Disability when they are actually able bodied.
This is a clear gift under IRS rules, not income. There is no way this should be included in a means test for income.
the program is crazy on how it is administerd. I am on disability but because I had paid into retirement I don’t rely on the program that she does. years ago because I was trying to work and not get social security I ended up with an over payment that I rightfully had to pay back to the program. they started to take 50 dollars a month out of my check and did that for the next 10 years. I then qualified for the program that this lady is having her money taken away from and suddenly I was getting 110 a month because according to there rules I was not getting enough SSi so the ssdi started to pay out. this lasted 10 years till I had paid back the over payment at witch time it stopped and because it had paid out one time to many after I was no suppose to pay out I had to pay that money back this lasted just two months and no it all paid back.....the part that I find crazy is that I was getting more money from the combination of the two programs when I owed social security money...
this lady needs to make an appointment to talk to social security in person because this looks to be a case of some one pushing the numbers on documents not examining what actually happen....if that does not work who ever is your federal rep in congress can look into it if it is not being handld correctly by social security.
If funds showed up in her account, they may have triggered something.
I find it highly unusual for SSDI to be this hands on with a particular account unless it was a frequent thing, or the funds were very large.
appears to be pieces missing ?
did she take all the 3700 ? to go to a ball game ?
I hope this is on Trump’s radar.
This is just wrong on every level. Who reported this to SS anyway?
Private York was a religious WW1 war hero.
After his return to the US and ensuing fame, he declined lucrative speaking engagements and movie roles, saying he didn’t feel right commercializing his military service —he just wanted to hunt and teach kids.
After he was bed-ridden and BLIND, the IRS stated York had used the wrong formula for calculating taxes and that he owed $150,000 in 1960 dollars, beggaring the bed-ridden man.
She seems smart, quite capable on the internet. Not every job requires a pretty face. Maybe people who feel for her should help her find a job.
Mean spirited of me? Maybe. But the reality is that SSI is growing faster than we can afford. Why should I work when I can make just as much on SSI?
I remember several women in my church in the 50s who had amputations, had “goiters” and other “disabilities”. They worked, often in small local family owned busnesses. Cashier at a gas station was the one I knew the best.
How dare this White woman get disability benefits when there are so many deserving illegals! The White privilege is appalling!!!!!
Never let it be said that the government is sensitive to the needs of the people.
