Guest guest Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 I see nothing wrong with the way you plan to do this. Otherwise, you can run the risk of insufficient funds in your son's account if you had him pay his portion throughout the trip. > > I know this has been well covered, but I'm just too tired to look it up. I finally reviewed the major receipts from our vacation trip in August. Although it's a little delayed, can I just photocopy these for the SSI file and write myself a check for 1/5th of the total? Or should I have used his debit/cash at the time. > > One extra item, bike repair, I considered a life necessity -- don't you agree, Ellen? > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Hi : My hubby says that it is his understanding that you can do exactly what you are doing and pay yourself back for Adam's portion of the family vacation as long as it is well documented, as you have indicated that you are doing. As for the bike repairs...needless to say...I agree! Bike repair is neither frivolous, nor is it optional...for Adam, especially! Ellen Ellen Garber Bronfeld egskb@...

Guest guest Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Bike riding is recreation. Buying a bike and repairing it if necessary is a recreation expense, just like SRA activities. It qualifies. -Gail ________________________________ From: jbergman51 <jbergman51@...> IPADDUnite Sent: Wednesday, October 5, 2011 9:23 PM Subject: SSI Accounting  I know this has been well covered, but I'm just too tired to look it up.
