20 CFR 416.435: Change in status involving a couple; ineligibility occurs.
Where this section sits in the code
- Title 20—Employees' Benefits
- CHAPTER III—SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION
- PART 416—SUPPLEMENTAL SECURITY INCOME FOR THE AGED, BLIND, AND DISABLED
- Subpart D—Amount of Benefits
Whenever benefits are suspended or terminated for both members of a couple because of ineligibility, no benefits are payable for that month. However, when benefits are suspended or terminated for one member of a couple because of ineligibility for a month, the member who remains eligible assumes the eligibility status of an eligible individual without an eligible spouse for such month and the benefit rate and payment amount will be determined as an eligible individual for the month.
