Received letter dated 5/20/10 of fully favorable as of 8/4/08. Benefit start date 2/09. I have not received a total benefit amount letter. I have been calling ss office no news they say is in computer.
Last SSA wage letter stated if disabled now would receive 1294 per month. I have 4 children. Any idea on calculations? When to expect back pay? And taxes to be paid if this is my only income to be received for 2010? Thanks |

"How much can family members get? Each family member may be eligible for a monthly benefit that is up to half of your retirement or disability benefit amount. However, there is a limit to the total amount of money that can be paid to you and your family. The limit varies, but is generally equal to about 150 to 180 percent of your retirement or disability benefit." Trudi

if that is your only income you wont owe any federal taxes. spread the backpay to the years they were paid for when you do your taxes for the lump sum backpay.

okay so even if I set up for direct deposit..
each minor child will get separate checks in their own name and husband will get separate check in his name then my monthly benefit will be direct deposit. I didnt know my husband will get his own check as well as my children So back pay will be sent via check for dependent children and husband? thanks |
