Hello everyone -
I have (several times) researched SSI/SSDI (not sure which applies), but each time it appears that my income is too high to get any benefits.
I have full physical/legal custody of my 3 children who have severe problems (ADHD, BiPolar, and several other disorders, varying slightly with each child).
Oldest is 16-1/2, middle is 15-1/2 and youngest is 12-1/2. Oldest just got out (6 mos ago) from an Residential Treatment Center (RTC). My middle son is currently in a placement through county probation dept., but will be moved to an Residential Treatment Center (RTC) through the AB3632 program within the month. And my youngest was just admitted to an Residential Treatment Center (RTC) through the AB3632 program.
My income is ~$85k/year and my wife (their step-mom) brings in about $10k working a little part-time. We own two vehicles, one worth ~$4k and the other worth ~$7k (that one has a loan out on it).
Would the children be able to receive any benefits? Or, would it be a waste of time to jump through the hoops?
Thanks!
