Hi John and the group. That is surprising. I heard they want to try to get
people off of SSI. I'd set up a time with your local office and discuss
your situation there. I'd hate to have to go back to SSI. Real strict
guidelines in that you can't have over $2000 in the bank at all. Also,
after I changed jobs my SSI fluxuated even though I took a pay cut, and had
to deal with overpayments and getting them waved.
