Keep Your Social Security Benefits Letter — It Matters for Medicaid Applications
Many families come to us after already submitting their Medicaid application, thinking they’ve turned in everything needed. Then they receive a notice asking for “proof of Social Security income.”
If you’ve misplaced your benefits letter or never downloaded it, you may discover that getting a new copy isn’t as simple as it sounds. With current SSA administrative procedures, you may have to visit your local office in person if you don’t already have an online mySocialSecurity account. Appointment wait times can stretch out for days or even weeks—especially during peak periods.
That kind of delay can feel devastating when you’re trying to secure coverage for long-term care or nursing home costs.
If you’re preparing for Medicaid planning or need guidance on qualifying for coverage, contact Vick Law in Greenwood, Indiana. We’ll walk you through what documents to gather, how to protect your assets legally, and how to avoid common mistakes that delay approval.
