Social security - how do I verify the SS monthly income amount?
I have a pair of tenants applying to lease a property that are on social security. They have shown and given copies of letters that show the monthly benefit amounts. They seem real but I am not sure. All benefits are put onto a debit card each month (not a bank account that I can request statements from ) My question is - how do I verify the benefit incomes indicated are the benefit amounts? Each tenant (unmarried couple) makes enough income to meet my 3x rent policy. There is proof of a small pension as well. They couple is looking for a long term property to rent and every thing else seems to check out. Is there a place I can verify the SS benefits?
Any assistance is appreciated. Thanks!
