Another fantastic bit was insurance made us apply for SSI for our oldest son again recently. He qualified medically before but we made too much money with my wife’s disability benefit. I guess they changed those resource calculations a bit because he got approved this time.

Anyway the payments started and the change in income triggered our income based rent to go up and our SNAP benefit to go down which together amounted to all but like 32 dollars of what they’re giving him in SSI. At least NY isn’t as restrictive about assets for people on SSI than some other states are.
