I have afriend that completed 21 years in prison. Upon returing to society he was given 100% SC for PTSD. Social Security turned him down for SSI because he had to much income from the VA. and also because he had not worked for the past 10 years. My question is, is this correct or is there another way to obtain these benifits?

Yes it is correct. SSI is income based please see www.ssa.gov for indepth information and income levels. No there is no other way to obtain these benefits if you exceed the income levels established by the government. Sorry. There may be some state benefits which might help him so please visit you local state benefits office.

    Knowledgeable people who don’t have time to read all posts may skip yours if your need isn’t clear in the title. I don’t read all posts every login and will gravitate towards those I have more info on. Use paragraphs instead of one massive, rambling introduction or story.

    Again – Make it easy for others to help. If your question is buried in a monster paragraph, there are fewer who will investigate to dig it out.

    exclamation-mark-orange-gold.jpg How To Post

    Post a clear title like

    ‘Need help preparing PTSD claim’ or “VA med center won’t schedule my surgery” instead of  ‘I have a question."

    This gives members a starting point to ask clarifying questions like “Can you post the Reasons for Denial of your claim?”

    Note:

    Your first posts on the board may be delayed before they appear as they are reviewed. The review requirement will usually be removed by the 6th post. However, we reserve the right to keep anyone on moderator preview.

    This process allows us to remove spam and other junk posts before hitting the board. We want to keep the focus on VA Claims, and this helps us do that.
