Dear , parents has a right to claim a maintenance from their son only if he is employed, in your case she has already getting maintenance, so chances are very less to get something additional, but she can claim.

Generally, a person can not claim maintenance from any of his children and other relatives if he or she is earning sufficient to survive. However, if he has sufficient ground to prove that he can not survive from the said earning then then he can claim maintenance.
