My Family's concern at the present time is
based upon the fact: SOCIAL SECURITY DOES NOT RECOGNIZE EITHER, POWER OF
ATTORNEY OR GUARDIANSHIP. SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION, SSA
PUBLICATION No. 05-10076, AUGUST 2001, ICN 468025, UNIT OF ISSUE-HD(one
hundred), pages 2 and 7 respectively.
We, as parents of our Autistic son of forty-seven years, now have a Durable
Power of Attorney. We have been informed that we no longer are to be
trusted to handle his financial affairs and must report to the Social Security
Office how the Social Security benefits, I paid for during my working years, are
now being spent for our Son's Benefit. Our Durable Power of Attorney
states, We, my wife and I and mother and father of our Autistic son has the
authority to execute his financial affairs. Nothing is mentioned relating
to answering to the Social Security Administration as part of this Durable Power
of Attorney.
When and Where did Social Security Assume this Power? And if Social
Security does not recognize one point concerning Power of Attorney or
Guardianship, May they also decide to ignore all parts of the Power of Attorney
or Guardianship? Including Life and Death and Organ donation decisions?
