Representative Payee Program From Greater Reading Mental Health Alliance

The Greater Reading Mental Health Alliance runs a Representative Payee Program to help people who are unable to manage their own finances keep living independently. A representative payee is generally someone who receives another person's Social Security payments and uses that money for the person's needs.

The page does not spell out who qualifies beyond that. The application form asks whether the applicant is currently receiving Social Security funds and whether the applicant already has a representative payee, guardian or power of attorney, with space to give supporting information if the answer is yes to any of those.

To begin, use the form on the program page at grmha.org/representative-payee. The form asks for the name, phone number and email of the person completing it, and for the applicant's name, address and birthdate. The page does not say how long the process takes or what happens after you submit the form.

There is a fee for this service, and the amount is governed by the Social Security Administration. The page does not say what the fee is, so ask when you contact the office.

For more information about the program, email info@grmha.org or call 610-775-3000 to speak with someone in the Representative Payee Department. The Greater Reading Mental Health Alliance's office is at 1234 Penn Ave., Wyomissing, Pa 19610, and its listed hours are Monday through Friday, 8:30 am to 4:30 pm. The page does not say you can apply in person or by phone.
