## Abstract

We are adding a rule on how the income and resources of ineligible spouses or parents affect the eligibility and benefit amounts of Supplemental Security Income (SSI) claimants and recipients when those spouses or parents are absent from their households due solely to a duty assignment as a member of the Armed Forces on active duty. We are adding this rule because the current rules do not reflect the provision of the Social Security Act (the Act), as amended by the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 (OBRA 1993), that addresses this situation.
