Child Support And SSI?

My children's father just recently went and filed something that stated that he is not ordered to pay child support to me anymore due to him receiving SSI. He has paid in the past and it was a very small amount for 2 kids. I have done everything. I went to the child support office and now am being told that if I wanted to receive any type of support then I will need to hire an private attorney.

Is there something that can prevent the other spouse from paying child support for the kids due to this parent receiving Social Security income? Please help and steer me in the right direction. I don't get it. I have never seen a state send correspondence stating that the father is not responsible after the children are legitimized.

Only the Social Security Administration can answer your questions. You can make an appointment at your local SSA office to address your questions.

If your husband is not able to work and is receiving benefits from SSI, the child support payments should be deducted from his benefit and paid to you for your children. You should check with SSA for answers.

Not with SSI no. With SSDI yes that is what should happen. But SSI? Definitely not. The max payment on a monthly basis for SSI is 750. Thats what they have to live on. You cannot work and recieve SSI at the same time and if receiving it you have proved you have a disability.

So if he is indeed on SSI and not SSDI then his wages cannot be garnished for child support or any reason actually.
