My friend Quit 2 jobs to be my caregiver I just recently got in section 8 and she makes $11 an hour 15 hours a week Well KCDC said that we didn't tell them about her I got a sign of promissory note for $50 every month and I got to pay back $2,000 there's no way I don't make that much money on SSI it all goes to bills and they're being really rude to me and my caregiver I've done fell in the parking lot twice that KCDC trying to get there finally got there they would not change the paperwork about the caregiver stuff and want to charge us $2,000 and $50 every month promissory does that sound right thank you very much
Yes, when you applied for section 8 your Caregiver should have been included if he/she was living with you. By SSI do you mean Suppliment income or Social Security Disability or just regular Social Security? I ask because if SSD or SS you may be able to get Supplimental income too which is called SSI. This will give you more money monthly.
Where I live Office of Aging also has the Disabilities Dept. You have rights as a disabled person. Call them and ask if they can help or give you a number of Legal aid. The problem with Social Services is different departments handle different things. Sometimes the right hand does not know what the left hand is doing. You need someone who can straighten this out for you. You are a hardship case and $50 a month on a limited income means food or a utility bill. I so hope as a disabled person you are taking advantage of all the resources out there for you.
