I have 3 kids; one turned 19 and his benefits stopped. My understanding was his benefits were to be divided between the other 2 and should pick up immediately. It's going on three months, how long does it take?

I would say for most government benefits it will take at least 3 months. Are you sure you heard correctly about the dividing of the older son's benefits? I have not heard of that. I only had 1 minor child when my hubby started with his SS checks.
Hi - where did you get the information about your present benefits? It is always best to go to the SS office for accurate information about anything that has to do with SS benefits. You cannot go by what anyone else receives or might receive as there can be many different facts that are not always told.
Take what information you have and visit your local SS office - just in case there is something you need to do and find out for sure what will happen now and in the future.
