I am 83 and receive Social Security Benefits, (not SSI) I recently have become blind and am on oxygen 24 hrs.?

  • I have a small income , and am in the lowest income tax bracket.
    Because I receive a small income , the Social Security office said I do not qualify for SSI.
    But are there other benefits I might qualify for through social Security because of my disabilities that might raise my monthly SS payment.


  • I can't think of any except you will now pay less income tax because your standard deduction will be higher since you are blind.


  • Unfortunately no.


  • Hi i am sorry to hear that u have gone blind and have to use oxygen
    24 hours, but i am also happy that you are alive,so let me give you some hope the creator never gives you more than you can handle.
    Have blessed christmas and a healthier new year.Your question
    should be answered by a social security advocate or a lawyer that is
    specialize in social security issues.For your respiratory problem i
    would suggest that you start drinking a lot of comfrey tea if you
    can find it in a health food store.Comfrey is known to create new cells
    in any infractions in the body.Please try this remedy or you can get in touch with me thru my e-mail and i can advise on what to do thru a
    remedy that i make.

    Count your blessings you are alive.
