Social Security tells payees to spend a childâs SSI on the childâs âcurrent maintenance,â which includes things like food, shelter, clothing, medical care, and personal care items. First, you should use the money to make sure your child has food and shelter.our childâs SSI payment amount will vary depending on the state you live in and whether your child has any countable income, but the federal base rate for 2015 is $733/month. (Read Nolo's article on how much SSI pays for more information.).
It sometimes takes months or even years for Social Security to approve a child for SSI (Supplemental Security Income) disability benefits. When the SSI application is approved, the SSI payments can go back to the month after the month you applied.These months of back payments are called retroactive benefits.ou will also have to report on how you have spent the childâs regular monthly SSI benefits. Social Security will want proof, so it is very important for you to keep bank statements, receipts, and written records of what you spent the money on.
