The social security benefits belong to the minor. The amounts are to be used for the minors benefit. A representative payee must apply the payments for the use and benefit of the entitled individual. Social Security and/or SSI funds are properly used if they are:

A. Spent for the beneficiary's current and reasonably foreseeable needs or

B. Saved or invested for the beneficiary, after current needs have been met.
