Federal law still requires all males reaching the age of 18 to register with the Selective Service System.  Go to: http://www.sss.gov/FSwho.htm

It varies depending on your case, family size, and how much had previously been paid into SS prior to your disability.\n\nLook here for more info:\nhttp://www.ssa.gov/disability/

I would contact the Social Security Administration.  Congrats on finally hearing from them.  Many wait for years.  I only had to wait my 5 month waiting period.

6 months after you start getting social security retirement checks.i think you might be ready in 2  or 4 years.check with your local social security officeto be sure.

It depends on your income.  Usually, it's the amount that you would pay in taxes at the end of the year + SS things.  This works out to around 20-40%, depending on your tax bracket.

Contact your local Social Security Administration office in your town.  Be sure to bring information on the child and his/her parents when visiting.

I retired from Social Security after 32 yrs!  All checks used to arrive on or near the 3rd of each month & will continue to be paid on that date to people who started getting checks before the change.\n\nNow Social Security retirement, survivor & disability checks come different weeks depending on a person's birthday.  For example:  If someone's birthday falls on the 1st thru 7th they would be paid the 2nd wk of each mo.  (I don't remember the details anymore but you get the idea).  If a check arrives on someone's actual birth date it's just a coincidence.\n\nSome people get SSI & those cks are due on the 1st altho cld take 2 or 3 days for them to get checks. SSI is NOT Social Security benefits.  It is a welfare program administered by the Social Security Administration for the blind, disabled & aged which is based upon financial need unlike Social Security benefits.\n\nSocial Security made this change for 2 reasons:  1) to space the checks so that employees aren't inundated with phone calls/work the 1st wk of each mo which results in better service & beneficiaries can get thru on the phones more easily and 2) it makes it less of a burden for postal employees.

First of all, I am sorry to hear you have lost both your parents.  As far as your question is concerned, Social Security does have a survivor benefit.  Now, since you are under 18 that support would go to your guardian to support you. When I say support you, I am referring to feeding you; clothing you; keeping a roof over your head, ect.  If you are in foster care, it would be payable to the state.  If you are living with another relative, it would go to them.  I don't think you would receive benefits after you turn eight teen, because at that point you are an adult and no longer a dependant.  I would try to find out if your parents had a will just incase they had some sort of life insurance that you may be entitled to or estate.  If you live with relatives, I would suggest you sit down with them and ask some questions.  I would not invest in a lawyer until there is good reason to believe something is being held from you that you are entitled to.  Are you sure that your parents actually owned anything tangible of value?  Did they have a house they owned that was sold after their death before foreclosure?\n\nIf you are in foster care, please plan for your future.  Stay in school and try your best to get good grades.  Visit the high school counselor and find out if there are any scholarship programs for students that are in the custody of the state.  It's going to be a tough road for you.  Hang in there. You can rise above it.\n\nTake care :)

I retired at 38, but that was 2 years earlier than I planned.  But, that is because I was self-employed.  My husband, on the other hand, will not retire until he is 62 1/2 in order to get his full social security benefits because he'd be a fool not to.  He's paid into it for 40 years and deserves every penny of it.  If he retires early, he would receive a lower monthly benefit.

Dude, you already asked this.\n\nA social security number is required to work in the United States. In order for an F-1 student to receive a social security number, the student must\n\nBe in F-1 status \nRegister full-time for classes \nObtain a written employment offer (new regulation as of 10/12/04) \nRequest a letter from International Student Services to apply for a Social Security card Once the letter is prepared, the student should go in person to the local Social Security office to apply for a Social Security card. Remember to bring your I-20, passport, visa, I-94 card and letters. The Social Security Office will send your Social Security card via mail in about 2-4 weeks.

There's actually a range for full retirement benefits. If you were born before 1937, it's 65. If you were born after 1960, it's 67. There's a range in between, and you can receive limited benefits if you start earlier. A good website to see is http://www.ssa.gov/retirechartred.htm.

Since he is on disability, you can only draw on his record if you have a child under the age of 16 AND if you do not earn over a certain amount per month.\n\nOnce you reach regular retirement age, you can draw regular social security based on whichever will give you a greater benefit, your's or his.

You must provide proper identification that you are his mother....depending upon his age....he/she should have some type of indentification (other than his Birthcertificate)....like shot records, school records etc.....because you also have to provide some type of identification for him for her then you just fill out a simple application at the Social Security Administration Office they will provide you with proof that you have applied but the Social Security Card will be mailed to you 6 to 8 weeks later
