Claim filed July 1981. PD/PB decision made August

Example 2:

Marcel Proust filed an SSI disability application on July 20.1981. A presumptive disability finding was made on August 23. Marcel receives a $125 employment related pension in the first month of each quarter and $50 in sup­port each month from their parent. On December 3, 1981, Marcel's claim is finally allowed effective July 198 1.

Originally, a monthly computation was made in the initial quarter of eligibility based on an August 1981 deemed initial month of eligibility. The computation will involve a quarterly computation for the period July 1981 to September 1981.

October-December 1981 (Payment made for October 1981, payments suspended in November and December 1981)

 

Example 3:

Same as above example except that the claim was filed September 2 and the PD determination is made October 8. Originally Mr. Proust is paid for October-December 1981; i.e., a quarterly computation is used. When the final allowance is received, payment will be made for Septem­ber 1981 based on a monthly computation.

Example:

A disability claim is filed in November 1981 by an in­dividual married to an eligible person. The DO makes a presumptive finding of disability effective with the month of filing. A short quarter computation combin­ing all of the couple's eligibility and benefit criteria for November and December is performed. Both mem­bers of the couple will receive equal monthly benefits for November and December. (See SI 02009.025.) A regular quarterly computation will be performed in January 1982. The disability determination is still pending after the three-month period for payment of presumptive benefits has elapsed.
