What do you do as my payee?

As your Representative Payee we help you manage your finances and get your bills paid so that you don’t lose your benefits. We will work with you to manage your benefits, create a budget that makes the most sense for you, and ensure that you have housing so that you will not lose your benefits.

When will I get my funds?

Your benefits are deposited into your own separate account. Once your rent and regular bills for the month are paid, your personal funds are released on the schedule we agree on together in your budget.

How do I get my funds?

We can provide a debit card if you need one, or arrange another way that works for you. Contact us any time to set up or change how you receive your money.

What happens if I move?

Tell us as soon as you can, ideally before you move. We will update your address with Social Security and set up rent and utility payments for your new home so nothing is missed.
