[QUOTE="DDD, post: 580871, member: 35"] Real estate is crazy recently. Sorry, Kathy. Janet I had a discussion (very brief) about the reason to live together and not marry or describe yourself as married. He responded "girlfriend looked it up on the internet and it does not make a difference unless she, too, is collecting SS." He also confidently told me that he is going to marry her sometime in the next year or two. SIGH! So I used the net to see and this is what it "appeared" to say. If you collect SSDI it doesn't impact you. If you collect SSI there is a big formula involved in seeing how much you lose if you marry. His SSDI is the bigger check he gets each month...just under $500/ The SSI check is under $300. I don't know which determines that he gets Medicare and Medicaid which is hugely important to me. Guess I'll have to do more research but today it was interesting to find that girlfriend was at least partically right. PRAY PEOPLE.........that a miracle happens tomorrow. I'm tired of this. :) DDD [/QUOTE]
