| RULE §700.845 | Can my child get adoption assistance monthly payments in addition to Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits? |
Only the Social Security Administration (SSA) can determine whether your child is eligible for SSI benefits. The SSA considers your family's financial resources in determining whether your child remains eligible for SSI benefits after adoption. If your child does remain eligible, the SSI benefits would be reduced by any amount you receive in adoption assistance monthly payments. If you choose to receive SSI benefits and do not sign an adoption assistance agreement with us before the adoption is final, you will not be eligible for adoption assistance if the SSI benefits stop after the adoption is final. |
