Next steps
My dad has been trying to get social security benefits as long as I can remember. He was already older when he had me and finally got approved for benefits back in September. It took him going to court and the court ordered he should get benefits as well as back pay. The local social security office we deal with is now saying he’s not getting any back pay and reduced his monthly payments down to $2 a month. Where should we go from here? He’s got multiple severe health issues and without this back pay we can’t afford to get him seen.
