Has anyone in the US on SSI or SSDI had any difficulty reporting income changes to their county social services or social security?
I am running into a massive problem in this regard, and kind of freaking out. I’m working for a county office, very short term, very part time, and it’s the same county as my social services case. I worked for them once in 2016 and once again in 2017.
I keep begging to meet with social services to get income and etc updated with the county for the pay - I’ve been begging for 18 months. I even went to the county commissioners and said I couldn’t get this resolved and didn’t know what to do and asked for help. The county said nothing needs to change and generally handled this super badly. I mailed it off the copy of the pay check stubs to the county and Social Security in 2016 and 2017, but I finally got records a few days ago from the county, just looked through them yesterday, and found out nothing has been updated - not address, not income, not expenses they ask be reported. None of what I sent them in 2016 or 2017 is showing up at all. They check all of this info with social security too - so now I’m thinking that never went through either.
I don’t know what to do. I am struggling to calm down. I am not sure why this is freaking me out. All I know is that it’s really important to update this stuff and government offices don’t tend to take responsibility for their mistakes but blame the person. I did send it in but I should have sent more follow ups when my social security payment was never reduced... I am posting to try to slow myself down and think this through and figure out next steps.
