California | Social Security Law
Legal Question
My husband just passed away at age 67. He was getting Social Security and still working. He has a lien of $8,000.00 against him owed to SS due to overpayment. I am disabled with MS and 64 years old.. I get less than $200.00 a month from SSI and I was getting a SS check on his work record. I was told by SS that I would now be getting his amount because it was higher...but now they tell me that the SS money is frozen until the debt is paid off. I have no other means of income. Can they keep my SS check? I do not know what to do....Please "HELP" Thank you for your time.
