[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 530112, member: 1514"] Since it is 2 months until she turns 18, I would contact SSI and talk to them about changing her to adult status. It does take them a bit of time. They may want to have her be seen by one of their doctors again. They will also probably want updated doctor reports. You will probably still be her representative payee. Im gonna tell you now that she probably isnt bad off enough for you to get guardianship of her through the courts. The best thing you could do would be to sweet talk her into letting her sign a power of attorney over to you. It could be limited to medical since you would already be her representative payee. Or you could just do a general POA to cover yourself for anything she should do. [/QUOTE]
