When moving SSD from New Jersey to Georgia - is there some long drawn out process that I must go through to continue receiving the benefits?

Reply by Paul No trouble at all. Spend a stamp and notify the Post Office of your change of address. Then when you get to South Carolina, go to the local office and ask them to change the address on the check.


What are the terms if I wanted to marry someone who was also disabled and receiving SSD?

Reply by Paul I am reluctant to give an answer to this question, for fear that you or someone else might rely on it and lose benefits. There are certain kinds of benefit that are not affected, and certain kinds that are. A fourth of the people that I meet with are wrong about the exact kind they are getting, so if I say one way or the other, someone will read that and hurt themselves. I will say that children's, widow's and SSI checks are often, but not always affected by marriage, but I will not say what checks are not affected without talking to you directly. Hope you don't mind; I just want to be careful.

Thank you...
