Hi there,
Please help me with this. My mom is 65+ and disabled too. She files taxes with stepdad and He does not help in any way but is taking benefit of her innocence due to which she only gets 400 as social security benefits which is worthless. I brought her to my house and wants her to be separated from him but she does not want to give divorce and I want her to take SSI and other Snap benefits because she needs and deserves it but cannot get because of the cash and stocks her spouse got which is useless. Is there anyway she can get separated to receive SSI and snap benefits without giving divorce?
