It's possible yes, unless the parent's disability would present a problem in caring for the children, in the opinion of the court.

Yes, a parent receiving disability SSI can seek custody of their children. The court will consider the best interests of the child when making custody decisions, and the disability status of a parent alone does not prevent them from obtaining custody. The court will evaluate factors such as the parent's ability to care for the child and provide a stable environment.

The non-custodial parent can go to court and request custody of the children. A judge will decide which parent should be awarded custody of the children.

Is there a difference in a parent who has custody of the children but not married vs the parent that does not have custody and is getting married and is fighting for custody of the children?

Being married or unmarried is not much of a determining factor when it comes to custody nowadays. In order to have custody changed you would need to prove that either your household and parenting abilities are substantially better than the other parent, or that their situation is detrimental to the children. Having a spouse does not necessarily mean that you are better able to care for the children, especially if the other parent has had custody for a significant length of time without the children having any problems in a single parent household.
