Can I Change My Disabled Adult Child's Benefits From My Father's Record To My Mother's Record?

I had just asked a question under "Can I Change My Disabled Adult Child's Benefits From My Father's Record To My Mother's Record?". please fully answer my question, can i change it or not?, i do not like how my father does things, he didn't even fill out my medical information so me and my mother (payee) were not able to obtain my medicine. please reply fully, thanks and sorry for asking two questions, even though it was the same one i asked before.



Hi,

You can't change it unless your benefit rate would be higher on your mother's record.

Best, Jerry
