Remastered Q&A: Can You Be Your Own Social Security Disability Payee?
In this remastered Social Security Disability Today Q&A episode, originally published on December 28, 2013, Tony Reeves revisits an important question for disability claimants and beneficiaries: Do you have the right to be your own payee?
Tony breaks down what a representative payee is, why Social Security may assign one, and what factors may raise concerns about a person’s ability to manage their own disability or SSI benefits. He also explains that needing a payee is not always permanent, and that individuals may have the opportunity to show Social Security they can manage their own financial affairs.
This episode is a practical, plain-language explanation for anyone trying to understand how Social Security views benefit management, financial independence, and representative payee decisions.
