I was injured in the military and got approved for SSDI. I've paid child support on time and lived on limited income. I told the SSA that my child lives 50/50 with both parents. The SSA sent my ex the back pay for the child, how can that be legal? She gets double child support paid to her when I've been suffering and going without to pay for my child. I have proof of child support paid, can I take my ex to court to get my SSDI backpay?

I would consult a lawyer. If you cant afford one, go to the Legal Aid Society.
This is really tough and I know you must really feel frustrated but it is possible you will not be able to get any money back but you may be able to reduce your support payments.
Thank you for your service to our country! G-d bless you and your family!
If you have trouble getting help through your military channels and finding a good lawyer to help with your questions, contact your state senator or your federal congressman and see if they can help. We have had help from our state senator on several issues and they have been kind and helpful.
Just learned recently that our US representative-- congressman--also has helpful services.
To find who represents you, put your city and state into Google and start with state representative. Ours came right up. All services are paid by taxes so no extra charge for you. They usually have many offices so they can help constituates easily!
Good luck! Prayers for a good solution!
The only way to rectify this problem is with a lawyer. He will be able to advise you about what to do. Hopefully, you can work this out so you won't need to pay child support on the extra money she has already received.
