Have you checked with the Social Security Administration to see if the children qualify for survivor's benefits on their mother's record, if she had been employed?
Also check with your county department of human services. You may qualify for some kind of kinship...
There's also no longer a "general relief" cash welfare program in most states in the U.S.. It was pretty much eliminated with welfare reform in 1996. In most states, people without minor children are no longer eligible for cash welfare.
I've had cats since I was a kid. Cats get attached to their families just like dogs do, and yes, they deserve forever homes.
I adopted my current kitty from a rescue group. I signed a contract with a return clause like the one mentioned above. I had the cat prior to this one, for 16 years. She...
I'm a Medicaid caseworker in Ohio. We have access to SSA death records as well. Have you told your mother's caseworker that you found her husband on there?
I personally never request a death certificate, if I can confirm the death through the SSA or an obituary.
Poor dog! Being left outside all the time in all kinds of weather, without adequate shelter. Can't fault the dog for barking. I vote as well for calling animal control or the SPCA, as it sounds like the dog is being neglected.
Ha!! My dad had a coworker whose wife was pregnant and due just after the new year. They asked for her to be induced early, so the baby could be born before the 1st.
Well, I paid into Social Security for 24 years, before starting my current government job at 40. I now pay into the Ohio public employees retirement system in lieu of Social Security.
So, when or if I retire, my Social Security benefit will be either greatly reduced or eliminated, because I'll...
Sounds like the school district I live in. It's compromised of kids from three neighboring suburbs. I live in the least expensive of the three, in a 1920s rental house.
Housing among the three ranges from small older apartments, to average middle class houses to new million dollar homes.
My...
I'm a county government employee. The agency I work for is largely unionized.
There's light years of differences between working in this agency as a unionized employee vs another county government agency I worked for previously, which was not unionized.
Mandatory overtime in the county non...
But let me guess, you've benefited from the union negotiating raises for you. Negotiating lower health insurance rates for you. Bet you have a pension too, as a result of the union.
I'm an AFSCME member too. I feel anyone who doesn't want to pay dues shouldn't still get the raises or other...
My kids were in Catholic schools through 4th grade for my son and 9th for my daughter, so I didn't even realize public schools charged fees at all. I assumed "free" public education really meant free.
If that's true, that's disturbing!
My son is in 10th grade in one of the best school districts in Ohio. He has almost all honors and AP classes this year. His class fees this year are $235. And they're not due until the end of September - he started school August 14th.
I've never been...
Get some boric acid powder. Sprinkle it in the back of your cupboards, along all the baseboards, in any cracks and crevices in the floor, etc.
The first apartment my husband and I lived in together turned out to be horribly roach infested. Boric acid was the only thing that worked...
