SSA payments paid on a child's behalf, based on the child support obligor's SSA account, count as child support for the month that they are paid. E.g., support obligation is $100 for November 2009, SSA pays $200 on child's behalf, obligor owes nothing in addition. (BTW, the excess cannot be "carried over" to meet the support obligation for a different month.)

If the child's RSDI benefit is based on the obligor's SSA account, it is considered child support. If that benefit exceeds the amount ordered for child support, the obligor does not owe any additional payment.

Yes, if he has income other than SSI or public assistance, but with SSD, he can motion the court to modify his order down to the amount being paid by Social Security.

Child support is calculated based on income of the father (or mother in such a case). If the father is unemployed his child support will still be calculated based on whatever minimum wage is in your state. The only time this does not apply is when the father is on disability. Welfare shouldn't matter.
