What Happens to SSI Benefits When Your Child Turns 18?

As kids transition from school to adult life, many, many changes occur.  What is your child going to do when they graduate?  Are they going to continue their education, or get a job, or get job training?  Are they going to continue to live at home?  How do your prepare for and make all of these transitions?

Oh, and have you thought about what might happen to any SSI benefits they are receiving?  How do these transitions in life impact benefits?

Social Security has developed materials that address some of the questions your may have.  One in particular that can get you started down the road to understanding some of the changes that might occur is called, “What You Need to Know About Your Supplemental Security Income (SSI) When You Turn 18”

To view this pamphlet, click here:  What You Need to Know About Your Supplemental Security Income (SSI) When You Turn 18
