Fake hearing scams
#Fake #scam #WorkersComp hearings are a sign of growing problem of #AI / #LLM being used to enable these scams. This theft is likely to expand to other areas of law like #unemployment #SSDI and #SNAP benefits.

dear #Disability #DisabilityLife #HelpFolksLive2026 #HelpNeeded #HelpNeeded2026 #Jewstodon #LosAngeles #Mazeldon #MutualAid #MutualAidNeeded #MutualAidRequest, not to go on a whole saga, but we have a need i've been trying to fill and trying to figure out for years at this point, and i've gotten to the conclusion that it's impossible barring intercession my someone with more money than we have, or some sort of connection, and we need the help.
we need #Housing, we need housing yesterday, or at least #HousingNow, and it needs to be relatively local to where we already are. this could mean living with people who already have the apartment/house and the space, or it could mean banding with a third person or couple who can afford to shoulder most of the burden of the rent and are willing to live with us.
we're both #AmbulatoryWheelchairUser and #Disabled, and we live on my #SSDI, and am the sole income provider for myself and @inoru_no_hoshi. i get $1704 per month, and right now about $700 of that goes to bills, and a decent portion of the rest goes to food and medical needs even though we do still get food stamps even with my income. at the most, we can afford to put $600 towards housing every month. we know that's not much, and that may change depending upon coming into additional money, them getting a job, what have you. we're always going to be limited by needing to qualify for medi-cal (although we're aware of the 250% working disabled program), and i'm always going to be limited by the substantial gainful activity rules and my own limited abilities to bring in further money. it changing cannot be counted on, especially in the near future..
if this is you! i'm going to dump the rest of the details, including why we need to get out of our current situation, into a thread so that not everyone has to read them, but if you know people in los angeles environs, empty nesters who miss having a full house, people with a two bedroom adu or guest house/back house, whatever it may be, please #Boost #BoostThis and #ShareThis and whatever other ways of getting the word out that you have. we're desperate. we're really, truly desperate.

Super helpful description of the differences between SSI (if parents are not collecting social security yet) and SSDI/DAC benefits (if a parent IS collecting SSI). This article will help you to understand how work will affect your benefits.

In less than a year, Trump and #Republicans #GOP erased 12 years of solvency for the trust fund that pays for #Medicare Part A.
They want to privatize it, along with #SocialSecurity and #disabled #SSDI and enrich themselves and their #criminal pals even more.

Third SSDI verification came in today. AKA, the actual official decision letter. Happy to note that all my calculations on back were correct(as in all I made after I knew how much my benefits were). Biggest thing I was looking for was the "continuing disability review" part. By law, SSA reviews all SSDI cases periodically, with a range depending on how likely you are to recover. I got the 5 to 7 one, "not expected to recover" one. This means student loan discharge! #disability #ssdi

While I didn't actually need it, it is nice that my lawyer also confirmed he received notice of SSDI approval. Whole phone call was a bit of a celebration as he was as surprised as I was. 22ish days from submitting appeal to approval is simply unheard of according to both what I have read and my lawyers experience. From what understand, there is around a 16% chance on 1st appeal. Was fully expecting ALJ Hearing. #disability #ssdi #ssa

I’m a disabled writer on SSDI. Without Medicare, I die—no dialysis means drowning slowly in my own fluids. I want to publish my work, but I’m scared royalties might risk my benefits. Supposedly they’re “passive income,” but I can’t gamble my life. Anyone been through this? #DisabledWriter #SSDI #WritingCommunity #ChronicIllness #Royalties

On this Day in Social Security History:
#SocialSecurityat90
#StrongerTogether6/2/1920 The Vocational Rehabilitation Act (commonly called the Smith-Fess Act) was signed into law by President Woodrow Wilson.
https://guides.loc.gov/chronicling-america-smith-fess-act6/2/1936 The Social Security account number, which contained no significant facts about the employee other than the State of registry, was approved by the Social Security Board.
https://www.ssa.gov/policy/docs/ssb/v69n2/v69n2p55.html6/2/1939 "...following public hearings on the proposed amendments and 6 weeks of executive sessions, the Committee on Ways and Means reported to the House H.R. 6635, embodying its recommendations for amendments to the Social Security Act. The day before, the House had debated and voted on the Townsend old-age pension bill. The Townsend plan, embodied in H.R. 6466 introduced by Mr. McGroarty (D-CA) in January 1935, was offered as a substitute for H.R. 6635 https://web.archive.org/web/20250523013105/https://www.ssa.gov/history/reports/crsleghist3.html

On this Day in Social Security History:
#SocialSecurityat90
#StrongerTogether5/29/1930 President Herbert Hoover signed into law the Civil Service Retirement Act of May 29, 1930, establishing a retirement system for federal employees.
https://www.ssa.gov/policy/docs/ssb/v4n4/v4n4p29.pdf5/29/1944 Michigan added a provision for dependents' allowances to its State unemployment insurance law; only one other jurisdiction (D.C.) had included such provision in its original law.
https://www.ssa.gov/policy/docs/ssb/v48n10/v48n10p22.pdf5/29/1998 SSA released its second Annual Report on the SSI Program.
https://www.ssa.gov/oact/ssir/SSI98/ssi1998.pdf5/29/1998 A Social Security Board ruling was issued that stated: when a State agency operated under a State merit system established by legislative enactment, the moneys appropriated under the Social Security Act for grants to the States for the fiscal year 1943-1944 could not be withheld by the Social Security Board for the Children's Bureau because those agencies disapproved of the personnel of the State agency, the manner of their selection, or their rates of pay."
