[quote=Anonymous]Another thing she can do is ask her member of Congress to do an inquiry. They won't take action on her behalf the way a lawyer would, but they can be useful in figuring out what's going on. Does your mom get SSI (which has income and asset limits but should only be taking 10% for an overpayment) and/or retirement/survivors insurance (which has fewer income limits and no asset limits)? If the latter, there are new rules that people should only have 10% of benefits withheld for overpayments. So while you work to get this figured out, a quick thing the SSA field office should be able to do is adjust the withholding to 10% of her monthly benefit.[/quote]
