Did they tell you who withdrew the money? And when the mone was withdrawn? Who is especially important. Per the SSA "
If you are receiving SSI, your payments are suspended while you are in prison. Your payments can be reinstated in the month you are released. However, if your confinement lasts for 12 consecutive months or longer, your eligibility for SSI benefits will terminate and you must file a new application for benefits. "
So it's entirely possible that SSA sent some payments but then found out that you were incarerated. If so, SSA would pull back any payments that you wre not eligible for.
You say that you didn't make phone calls, write letters or receive visits; so how do you know the bank continued to get your direct deposits? Seems we're not getting the entire story.
