I was on social security disability for kidney cancer and depression(symptoms did not resolve after radical nephrectomy). I was very rudely thrown off the disability in 2002 when I was still too sick to work. I was diagnosed with lung cancer in April 2003 and thyroid cancer in June 2003. I opened a business because I needed some means of support. Last week, a loan to my business was denied because social security has a placed a lien against my business for $20,500. My business cannot continue without this loan. I have not even received a notice from SS and don't know who to call. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP.

I have received a notice for overpayment and need help in completing a suitable reconsideration form. My son was receiving SSI Disability. I called with income change and faxed other information the office requested. I have no idea how to repay the thousands of dollars the SSI Office is asking me to repay.

I have received a notice for overpayment and need help in completing a suitable reconsideration form. What would a valid reason be for requesting reconsideration. I have been working for 6 years part time. They have given recent work activity as a reason for saying I was overpaid.

Karen:
If you still have time to appeal, you should do so (reconsideration form), preferably with the help of counsel. Otherwise, ask for a waiver. Given the large amount of money at stake, you may also want to enlist the help of your Senator or Congressman's office.
