My question is about transferring an underage child's check from one payee to another. Can my husband transfer his daughter's SSI check to his name instead of her grandmother's now that she lives with us in another state? If so how?

Your first stop for correct information is your local Social security office. Be sure to take any information - especially SS numbers.
You may not be able to obtain any personal information but you may be able to file so you can receive information on what steps to take to get this change completed.
The child's grandmother - her legal guardian - can also get this information.
I guess the first question would be - why does the grandmother have legal guardianship of the the child?
In any case - I feel sure the father will have to go through the court to obtain legal status as guardian to the child. If you cannot afford to use an attorney for this purpose, you can pay a visit to your court house and obtain information on how to apply to the court yourself.
