How come reciepents of SSI don pay child support?
My son is 16 months old and I was denied child support due to his father being on SSI. I think its not fair and he still can work and make money but he doesn’t help support his son in anyway. Even people that are retired and get social security can have child support taken out. My son’s father is still making more babies with 5+ kids and more on the way. I am a single mom busting my butt to support my son with help from my parents. I can’t terminate his rights because I will lose my medical, also I was told by many people to go ahead and take him to court. I wasted my time and effort to achieve something like this but to have what felt like a big law book thrown at my face. I was told by my county that I could call the social security office to see if I can get benefits for my son but that was a big fat NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
