Guest guest Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 So right now u are only on SSI? When I applied for SSD they automatically put me in SSI to, but when I did the overphone appl. they said I would want SSD as would give me more $$ a mo. still not much, I use to make that in a week! I hate to think about it. But I was turned down right away said I have to many assets I have 2 cars!, can't exceed 3,000 in net worth. how did you survive financially waiting.

Good luck and don't give up D. in CA --------------------------------- Looking for last minute shopping deals? Find them fast with Yahoo! Search.

Guest guest Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 We almost didn't survive. My dh was out of work. We were living in his mothers house but sister was still charging us rent and even threatened to have us evicted. The house had been paid for for years. Other than insurance and property taxes. A friend of mine lent us money with the understanding that when I got my disability I would pay her back and I did pay her back with interest. It was an awful time But I didn't give up and here I am. I guess they re-evalute you every 3 years or so..I am not looking forward to that. I have been on it 2 yrs now. D. in CA --------------------------------- Never miss a thing.
