943 a month.Im on the Hud list but can't get low income housing bc of being a felon over a stealing charge.I know I did this to myself but everyone makes mistakes what can I do without losing my ssi
SSI was never meant to be “lived on” The first S in it stands for supplemental, it’s designed to supplement an income, not be an income. Trying to live on $943 a month is certainly an impossible challenge
I don't know about the housing situation but I am also on SSI , I cannot work because of debilitating health issues, I supplemented my income by donating plasma . If you can handle the sight of blood and can pass the health screening , it's a very simple way to get cash when you need it, paid daily at the time of donation. If they have those places in your area a lot of them have incentives to attract donors they pay bonuses for so many donations in so many amount of weeks To to anyone who may be wondering no donating plasma is not the same as donating blood it works the same but you get your blood back.
I asked this on your other post, are you talking about Social Security or Supplimental Security Income? Your question cannot be answered correctly if we don't know which your on.
Social Security does not care that you take out loans. This money you earned by working for it. If you are collecting before 67 then there is a cap on how much income you can bring in.
Supplimental income is probably monitored and taking out a loan may effect it especially since you said you are getting Medicaid. But you have paid those loans off, so I don't see why you are worried about them now.
If SSI means Social Security Income then you maybe able to get Supplimental income too if you are a certain age. This you need to discuss with a caseworker at your Social Service office. Hopefully they can also help you with housing.
Every single ssi or ssdi recipient I have known in middle age has some sort of hustle, ie odd jobs that aren’t reported, unless they’re clearly immobile themselves.
When you asked this question on 9/27, I and others answered you.
You may want to get a job for as many hours as possible that will still allow you to keep your SSI. Or get a roommate to share expenses.
Many, many senior citizens are in a similar predicament, getting low Social Security pension checks every month, and having no felony records, who have to go back to work in their 70s to make ends meet!
while receiving Social Security benefits. The loan proceeds will not affect Social Security retirement benefits. However, if you're receiving Supplemental Security Income (SSI) from Social Security, any loan proceeds you don't spend could count against you and reduce your benefits.

You asked a similar question before.
Sorry, that felony is going to follow you for a long time.
Try to get a caseworker or case manager for assistance. Getting a job, your benefit may decrease the more you earn.
You may want to get a job for as many hours as possible that will still allow you to keep your SSI. Or get a roommate to share expenses.
Many, many senior citizens are in a similar predicament, getting low Social Security pension checks every month, and having no felony records, who have to go back to work in their 70s to make ends meet!
If you notice more older people are continuing to work even if they're doing well, financially.
