Forum on attorneys for social security disability
Government entities can collect your benefits checks, however. If you owe the government for back taxes, for example, your debt can be collected from your social security disability checks. The only other agencies who can collect your benefits checks are those handling your delinquent child support or alimony payments. Q: Can owning rental properties hurt your chances of being awarded approval for social security disability? A: Only your ability to earn a working wage affects determination of social security disability benefits. Things like dividends from investments and income you collect via rent are not considered when establishing your eligibility for disability benefits.
