SSI Backpay and Child Support?

My father got approved for his SSI and received a portion of his back pay before he past away. He wasn't married at the time, I'm his only child and next of kin. I'm 35 years old now, but he owed back child support to my mother. Are we entitled to the rest of his SSI back pay that he was suppose to receive?

Only the Social Security Administration can answer your questions. Call for an appointment at the local office and prepare copies of all pertinent information for your visit.

SSI recipients are not required to pay child support. SSI means they are deemed unemployable. Normally child support arrears can be collected for 10 years after the child's emancipation, age 28 or 29 normally.

Most states "forgive" child support arrears once someone is approved for SSI. Too late in your case.
