Legal Question in Family Law in Georgia

My husband and I aren't getting along and are going to get a legal seperation. We have a 12 year old daughter with special needs that we need to care for together due to us both being disabled. Can we live in the same household even though not the same room and still be ok with social security? We live in Georgia
