SSI

Hell,

 

Does being claimed as a dependent affect my SSI?

SSI

No, probably not based on the information you provided.   Social Security benefits and Medicare are not affected whether you are being claimed as a dependent or not (especially if it is your only source of income).

 

However, to be certain, you should ask Social Security how this might affect your eligibility for SSI.
