Emancipation in Pennsylvania
I am 17 & live in philadelphia pa & I want to get emancipated I am currently living with my grand mother because when I lived with my mom her boyfriend hit me & she lied and said he didn't which wasn't the first time she did that now she is trying to get me to move back with her and I don't want to I HATE that house. We got in an argument which led to physical abuse. I can support myself I get a ssi check every month 639 I found a room for less than that. My grandmother who I live with is my payee and when I asked her now much I get she said 400 so I called social security and they said other wise. Even before I wanted to move out when I asked for money for things like my phone bill or just spending money she would yell and say no most of the time. Is this enough to get emancipated. I will be 18 on February 15th but that's way too long

Re: What Are My Chances of Being Emancipated
Not a chance. Abuse is not a justification for emancipation, period.
Your grandmother is free to apply the SSI payment to your board as she sees fit. She's not obligated to give you a phone or spending money with it.
The fact that you're on SSI pretty much precludes emancipation anyhow.
You'll have to tough it out to next February and then you'll figure out how hard it is to live on SSI by yourself.
