So my dad is on disability/retirement pension and they received a letter stating that the SSA overpaid them the last few years and that my parents owe them $20,000. Now I'm sure this is chump change to many here and doesn't sound like a whole lot, but with the amount of bills they have to pay they have no hope in paying these people back for quite some time. Possibly 3 years at the earliest... the SSA sent a letter stating if they don't pay back that money they'll either stop the benefits or deduct money from each check to pay back the owed $20k.
All this to say that I'm infuriated by how evil these people are. It's clearly not my parents fault and they even state in the letter that it's not their fault, but they still spring this shit on their lap. Their lawyer apparently told them that nothing can be done about it either.
Suck on the government's tit? You don't even know why they're on disability, asshole.
I see you couldn’t make it past the first sentence before responding emotionally. That’s fine.
Thinking you can beat criminals in a legal systems, using members of their legal society (the bar) is a losing game.
Either play their stupid games, use their forms, let them drag it out for who knows how long, costing who knows how much, or, you can challenge the debt in your own court.
Whatever you do, best of luck man.
