My father bought me a home before he died so I would have a place to live. I lived there 3 yrs. then couldnt afford insurance on it nor pay the taxes. I sold the home and the money was sent direct deposit from the realitors office to my sisters bank account. I did not have access to it at any time. My sister took the money and bought me another home. She used all that money plus some of her own. I have to meet with the Social Security people in a few days because they said the IRS sent them information saying I sold my home. I researched and found out so far I know I am liable for the 2 months it took from the sale of my home till my sister purchased the other home. (From closing to closing appx. 60 days.) The other home is in her name.(The new one she bought for me) Anyway, is this as far as it should go? Me just having to pay back the 2 months my sister had the money? When my father bought this home he stated that I could live there until I died or I didnt want to or couldnt afford to. I couldnt afford the insurance and taxes is why I left.He also stated, but not in writting that if I should do either of the above that my sister should have the house. She didnt want it nor need it is why it was sold. Could you please tell me the best way to handle this when i meet with them next week. Thank you very much. i depend greatly on the SSI and medicaid as I cant work and I see the doctors about 4-6 times a month. Thank you again for your help...
