Financial Assistance for Assisted Living in San Rafael

Optional State Supplementation The Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program provides monthly cash assistance to seniors who have a low income. Seniors who live in assisted living facilities are able to receive a higher monthly payment than seniors who live independently. This additional funding is known as&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ssa.gov/pubs/EN-05-11125.pdf" target="_blank" data-mce-href="https://www.ssa.gov/pubs/EN-05-11125.pdf" rel="noopener noreferrer">Optional State Supplementation (OSS)</a>.&nbsp; Seniors who live in an assisted living facility can receive up to $1,194.37. For couples, the maximum OSS payment is $824.60 for a total SSI benefit of $2,388.74. Seniors who have other sources of income may receive lower payment amounts. Seniors can qualify for SSI payments if they are 65 years of age or older and have limited income and resources. To learn more about this program, apply&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ssa.gov/onlineservices/" target="_blank" data-mce-href="https://www.ssa.gov/onlineservices/" rel="noopener noreferrer">online</a> or call the Social Security Administration at (800) 772-1213. Assisted Living Bridge Loans Some seniors have a long-term source of funding for assisted living care, but don’t have access to the funds yet. This may be the case for seniors who are planning to sell their homes and use the proceeds to pay for care. These seniors may want to look into assisted living bridge loans. These loans, which are offered by <a href="https://elderlifefinancial.com/our-services/#BridgeLoanInfo" target="_blank" data-mce-href="https://elderlifefinancial.com/our-services/#BridgeLoanInfo" rel="noopener noreferrer">Elderlife Financial</a>, provide short-term funding for assisted living care. It’s&nbsp;a structured line of credit, so seniors only withdraw the amount they need. Be prepared to explain your plans to repay the loan. Since up to six cosigners are permitted, individual creditworthiness may not be a deciding factor. To apply, fill out an <a href="https://elderlifefinancial.com/loc/" target="_blank" data-mce-href="https://elderlifefinancial.com/loc/" rel="noopener noreferrer">online application</a> with Elderlife Financial, or call (888) 228-4500.&nbsp;
