Social Security to Distribute Stimulus Payments in May

This afternoon, the Social Security Administration (SSA) announced that in May they will distribute a one time payment of $250 to Social Security and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) beneficiaries. The payment is the result of the economic stimulus package signed into law last month. A leaflet discussing the payment in greater detail is available here, http://www.socialsecurity.gov/pubs/10519.pdf, and additional information is available on the SSA website here, http://www.socialsecurity.gov/payment/. Recipients of veterans benefits and Railroad Retirement benefits also are eligible for the payments in addition to those receiving Social Security. People eligible for the benefits do not have to take any action in order to receive the payments. They will be paid to you by the agency from which you currently receive benefits. Information for veterans will be available on the VA website at http://www.va.gov/recovery/ and for recipients of Railroad Retirement benefits at www.rrb.gov. Note: If you receive benefits from more than one agency (eg, SSA and VA), you will receive one $250 payment, not two payments.

That isone of the most lucid thoughs I have ever read!!!!!! Trouble is we are honest peons for the most and seemd like you have to be greedy and dishonest to have an organization like AIG, Bank of America.

Please do not talk about PR, if you have a problem in the way our goverment is given out money than take it out on them and leave PR out of it ok. I do not think you like it when other countries talk bad about the US or burn the flag.

Please leave politics out of Hadit and especially no disparagement of any group of people. It takes a lot of time to Moderate when our Members cannot seem to grasp the simple fact that this Board is to help Veterans with claims and not to one up each other.
