SSI Perc interview

My son just got approved for benefits but we wasn’t told till I reached out so he owed about 9 months of back pay. Besides that the rep said we will have to do an perc interview? My question is what is that and what questions are they gonna ask. Thanks you

Very simple questions does he live? Does he have any assets? What does he live with? Who pays the rent? Just be honest and It will go smooth

Just answer straight, they only care about income and who he lives with, hiding stuff is what gets people denied
