Does anyone know if a person on SSI with a Section 8 voucher can use that to pay a mortgage on a Mobile Home? Based on a 3-year mortgage, Kanga would have enough between her SSI and Section 8 voucher to cover the mortgage (it's only about $50 more than rent on an apartment).
And can she own the mobile home or will it disqualify her from SSI?
Logically, it would make more sense for the govt to let her do this because then the govt 'share' of her rent would drop from $400 to $120 after the 3 years. For a child who is likely going to stay on the dole for her lifetime...let's say 60 years, the savings to the taxpayer would be $191,520. But who ever said that the govt was logical...
