I AM 63 YEARS OLD AND I AM LIVING ON SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY ALONG WITH A SMALL RETIREMENT INCOME. SINCE 2004 I WAS ABLE TO PAY MY BILLS AND INSURANCE AND BE ABLE TO PROVIDE FOR MY FAMILY, BUT SINCE 2009, I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO DO SO. WITH EVERYTHING GOING UP I CAN NO LONGER DO IT AND IT MAKES ME FEEL VERY BAD THAT I CAN’T. I’M SURE THAT SOME OF THIS IS MY PROBLEM BUT I CAN’T HOLD OUT TO GET A JOB TO HELP MY INCOME. I NEED HELP BUT CAN’T SEEM TO FIND ANYONE THAT WILL DO SO. I WANT TO PAY MY BILLS NOT TAKE A HAND OUT BUT MY INCOME IS LIMITED. IS THERE HOPE OUT THERE?

Jeffrey,

Where you live do they have Public Housing? or section 8 this is for people who has no income or limited income.

Where I live we have many churches that give free clothing, Salvation Army is another great organization that will help you they would you a voucher with a dollar amount to buy clothes.

Jeffery I wish you will.

Gregg I went through the same thing that you are going through, I got the Attorney he had me sign a lot of forms I did not see him anymore until it was time for me to go before the judge, he did nothing but sat while my husband and I testified, make a long story short I got the money but what my Attorney did was nothing.

Social Security looks at your 5 activities of daily living how it impacts your daily life. Dressing, bathing, ability to walk, feeding etc. you must be able to at least be able not to perform 4 of the daily activities but your medical records should speak for itself but this is not how it works. If you are young you will get a standard letter stating that because of your age and educational background there is something that you can do, but they forget to tell you what jobs you can perform.

Your medical records should speak for itself but a lot of the times this is not the case I wish you luck.

And to the others if you are a student and have a spouse filing their W2’s you can file form 8863 you get 1,000.00 tax credit if you are a student.

I am disabled myself and my only income $6002,00 dollars a year and I do recieve food stamps every month in the amount of $82.oo and my disabiliy check $619.00 a month. I am in very desperate need of dependable transportation, winter cloths and Food. I didn’t qualify for cash for clunkers because it was only useful for people that could afford a car payment every month, and had a car that didn’t get good gas milage, didn’t matter if the exhaust system, or any other malfunction that was not safe you weren’t eligible unless you could afford another bill on top of the ones we can’t pay as it is. So who is all this stimulas for, or just maybe you have to know someone in the US GOVERMENT to get any of it. I havn’t yet to find one I’m eligible for, good luck, hope you get releif from somewhere, looks like to me were to proverty sticken to get any from our goverment.
