QUESTION: My father receives Supplemental Security Income. He recently moved, but he hasn’t reported his new address to Social Security yet. What’s the easiest way to do that?

ANSWER: Check an address online by using the my Social Security account at www.socialsecurity.gov/myaccount. It is very important that Social Security has someone’s most up-to-date information, including any change in income, resources or living arrangements. People can learn more about the rights and responsibilities of Supplemental Security Income recipients at www.socialsecurity.gov/ssi.

QUESTION: I am about to get married, and I receive Supplemental Security Income. Will getting married affect my payments?

ANSWER: Yes, getting married can change SSI benefits, and it must be reported.

Although getting married won’t usually affect Social Security disability or retirement benefits, that is not the case if someone receives SSI payments. Learn more by reading Supplemental Security Income, at www.socialsecurity.gov/pubs.
