Title: Exclusion of Certain Military Pay From Deemed Income and Resources (978P) 
Abstract: These proposed rules would exclude additional military pay for combat service from countable income and resources when we determine the eligibility of children and spouses of military personnel for Supplemental Security Income (SSI). The exclusions ensure that the SSI benefits of children and spouses of military personnel are not adversely affected by the deployment of their family members to a combat zone. In determining an individual's eligibility for SSI, under certain conditions we would not count the combat pay of an ineligible parent or spouse as income. Also under certain conditions, for 9 months following the month of receipt of any retroactive payment, we would exclude from deemed resources the unspent portion of that payment as resources.
