Not income. Each was paid by PayPal straight to the shop or her ABLE account, so none of it reached Maya as money.

How to report
Call 1-800-772-1213, TTY 1-800-325-0778. Or visit or write any Social Security office. Have her Social Security number ready. Giftwise never asks for it.
No call is needed for these gifts. Other changes, like a move or a new job, are reported the same way.
Reporting by May 10, 2026 keeps her check right. A report that is late can mean a deduction of $25 the first time, then $50, then $100.
Anyone can check this report
Scan the code, or open the link, and Giftwise rebuilds this report from its records and checks the audit ledger. This month's gifts are from the sample year, which has no PayPal record, so there is nothing to ask PayPal. A benefits counselor or caseworker can do it without logging in.
