Default just filed for survivor benefits for my grandson
My son passed away in Feb & I have full custody of my 12 year old grandson; & today I filed for benefits for him. Since it's the weekend I have to wait till Monday to make a couple of calls. So I figured I'd ask a couple of questions here & hopefully get some answers. My grandson & I live alone & we are on foodstamps & medical assistance & also HUD. The only income I have is SSDI & it's a very low amount. His mother has not seen him for 9 years; this was her own choice; she gave my son full custody of my grandson. My son lived with me & we both raised him; up until my son died. . I receive no support from her as she is on SSI. Since she found out my son died --- she wants full custody of him. But, the judge gave me custody.
What I'd like to know is: Will the monthly benefits effect our foodstamps & our HUD? Thank you for any information you may have.
