I was told by a person at the SSI office that I would have to quit my job to get my benefits that is not enough to live on how do I go about speaking with someone who can help me

Go to the office

You can't. If you're trying to get SSD you can't be able to work. I will be homeless next month because I have been waiting for a year to be approved. I have know more money to sustain myself until they make their decision. If you can continue to work do it. The social security system is made to see people fail. If you're not true retirement age DON'T DO IT!!
