I receive SSI and was wondering if I get married would I loose my benefits. My
Boyfriend only makes about 20,000 a year, there is no way we could make it
With just his income. I am in a wheelchair and recently had a partial food amputation.
I've had 2 hips replaced, an illeostomy, and survived ovarian cancer. He will be retiring
In a few years, but I really don't want to wait that long. Any one with any info on this
Would be greatly appreciated. Thanks:confused:

Your state ( and each state is different) has their rules and regs for payments. With that said, talk to your case worker who may be able to look at it and give you an opinion. I do know in TN at 20,000 a family of three loses all of their state health benefits
