Because I am on SS disability I get a small amount of money for my minor children. Let me tell you, they are very strict about how you have to spend that money ON THE CHILDREN. It probably wouldn't have been illeagle for her to buy a house with the money IF you lived in the house also. But, since you've never lived there she definetely broke the law. It just may have been too many years ago to do anything about it. But, like I said before, it's worth a phone call to SS to find out.
