Your daughter may be entitled to support as a dependent of someone on disability from the social security administration. I would contact them and find out. The child's father can be compelled to cooperate with the application if needed.
Good Luck.
Hello,
If the Father is collecting disability than your daughter should be receiving benefits as well. You will first need a court order establishing Paternity if you were never married to him.

Thank you,
I agree with the statements above. Allow me to outline one plan in is easy steps:
1. Show that your husband is the father
2. File paperwork with the people who are giving disability to your husband
3. Collect support money for your daughter
My guess is you were asking for the wrong kind of support.
If you need assistance, feel free to call. You will not be charged any money for the first call.
