Скачать или смотреть SSI Isn’t About Income — It’s About Who Controls the Money

Most people believe SSI eligibility is decided by income limits alone. In reality, the Social Security Administration often focuses on something far more important: who controls the money. Many SSI issues begin not because income is too high, but because access, authority, and control over funds are unclear.

This video explains how SSA evaluates control versus ownership, why access to money can matter more than whose name is on an account, and how everyday situations can create problems even when income rules are followed. It also breaks down why long-term SSI cases are often more vulnerable to control-related issues than newer cases.

Inside this video, you’ll learn:

Why income is not always the main trigger in SSI decisions

What SSA actually means by “control”

How access to money affects SSI eligibility

Why ownership does not always protect an SSI case

How control issues appear in normal, everyday situations

Why long-standing SSI cases face increased scrutiny

How understanding SSA’s perspective can prevent surprises

This is not surface-level SSI advice. It explains how SSI works behind the scenes, based on how SSA evaluates availability and control rather than intent. When you understand the difference between income and control, SSI decisions become more predictable instead of confusing.

This channel focuses on clear, factual explanations of SSI, SSDI, and Social Security rules so complex topics are easier to understand and navigate.
