Rachel, only someone who is disabled by social security definition qualifies to receive SSI.  And if that person is a child the entire family's income and assets have to be below certain amounts.  If it's a child the cash paid would be paid to a parent for the child's benefit.  The complicating factor I see here is that you live rent-free with your mother.  That could affect the amount you receive.  In general, the amount paid to a child is something like $630/ mo.
