My daughter is living in her car and ask me to get my granddaughter who is partially disabled. She gets SSI and my daughter will not give me benefits for her. I went to Social security and inform them of the matter and told them I have a POA. They stated they do not honor those. What other form or proof I can get to show them I have temp custody without having to go to court?
Guardianship is obtained through the court. The mother will be asked to waive her parental rights. An Order Appointing Guardian will provide you with the authority over the medical and education of your granddaughter.
Consent for Temporary Custody of a Family Member. The Mother and Father of the child can sign a consent that the child live with you temporarily. My experience with clients is that social security administration will accept that consent form to redirect the benefits to you. They might require the consent be approved by the court.
