FYI There are two computations done with the earnings record. One is the PIA, primary insurance amount and the other is the FMAX, the family maximum. In disability claims for individuals who have just enough earning to become insured, the PIA can equal the FMAX which means nothing can be paid to the children or spouse. Best way to find out is to file a claim.

I would never get disability for my children! There is a mandated treatment program. I don't want the government telling me how to raise my kids

SSA does not have a mandated treatment program for disability recipients because if there was such a program, your benefits would have stopped long ago since you don't get treatment.

And let's hope that your children are never found to be disabled. Healthy and strong, yes. Disabled, no.

I'm currently going through a CDR review and see the codes you are referencing about. I recognize my SS#, my year of birth, report period start date, and the local SSA office address that I'm dealing with.

How do I find out what the other codes mean?

look at section 8 in the link below

here are diagnosis codes

I'm unable to open the first link--which happens with SS links at times. If you can correct it and post both in the stickies for future reference, that would be a great help! TY.

Both links worked for me. Perhaps try a different browser? I used Safari.

For that top link I get this message on my screen (browser is firefox) (also tested it with Comodo Ice Dragon browser- same message)
I don't know if that is because it is some other site and is not a government website??

Field 3 – Profile Type (High, Medium, or Low)

Field 4 – Profiling SCORE (9999 is highest)

Field 5 – Report Period covered by the mailer

Field 6 – Scanning Form Identification Code (SFIC) (describes if it is a first or second request mailer, whether it is Title II, concurrent, or Title XVI-only, and whether the beneficiary prefers a non-English language notice).

Field 8 – Servicing State Agency/DDS code

Field 9 – Servicing Field Office (FO) Code


Scanline 3 –
Field 1 – Servicing FO City Name

Field 2 – Servicing FO State

I have already contacted the SSA about the benefits you mention. They said there is no such thing as benefits through me for my kids or spouse. In fact, since getting married and having kids, I get less. It went from $900 a month to $600. Which does not make sense to me why you get spousal and dependent deductions...

The only other option they said I could do is file SSI for my children as being disabled. Which comes with the obligation to allow the SSA to dictate mandatory treatment....

I have not received a "Fully Favorable decision", unless that is forum language?

I have never yet received anything that lists a disability on it. I do not know where to find it. Nor how to go about getting it. Surely I can ask them. But that would just seem awkward...
