Remember the stimulus checks we received during the pandemic? Well now the government wants that money back if the receiver was receiving SSI at the time. This can result in people with disabilities or the elder becoming homeless.
For sure it is causing those of us who feel threatened by the government's effort to take back that money, sleepless nights and other stress-related problems. This is an extremely frightening thing for many of us who thought we were to stimulate the economy by spending that money so the payback will be taken out of our present income. Our SSI payments vary but I think most of us get less than $1,000 a month.
Whenever we have more than $2000 our SSI check is stopped until the money is gone. We would been better off if we were never given that extra money. A friend's SSI check will be cut by $100 a month until they have gotten $5000 from him. He is on kidney dialysis. I don't know how badly I will be hurt but I am scared.
