I received a letter about a week ago from Soc Sec asking for my Compromise and Release documents from my worker's comp settlement.

At the time, we covered 'Hamilton' which is a ruling that prevents Soc Sec from reducing benefits due to a settlement.

It seems they are attacking that as well. I fully expect they are going to try to reduce or eliminate my benefits (or worse, 'claw back' money they think they overpaid).

I went through an overpayment debacle already. It took over 3 years to resolve.

If I'm lucky, I can draw it out until he is gone, but I don't see that. They have been very quick with implementing cruelty.


I live in the Bay Area (my mom is over 80 now, so I can't really be far from her). If they reduce my benefits I don't know what I will do. I work part time (within SSDI limits) to cover my bills that SSDI doesn't, but I often am close to the limit, so cannot work more to compensate (further wrecking my spine... weeeeeeeee!!!!!).
