Is it correct that an individual receiving SSI who is claimed on the taxes of the Rep Payee will not receive even the $500 EIP?

May peace remain with you !
As a non americanophone from birth, I was born in France, in Nice, in 1978. One day I learnt your mother tongue, and between the young age of my own Dad, born in America in 1947, and your language nowadays, this is a real diffrence to listen to, or to hear, to forget the mother tongue of america. When you are giving statements about financial goals for the american people you do not speack a clear language, and this is not healthy to communicate that way. There is always room for improvement, and you ought to remember the law of innocence and not the jungle law. Did you learn about the meaning of Religion ? ISLAM ! ? Our beloved prophet Mohamad Rassul Allah salallahou Alayhi Wa Salam, may peace and prayer be upon him.
