CITATIONS:

Regulations 416.1160(d)

A. Definition

A dependent for SSI deeming purposes is the same as a dependent for Federal income tax purposes; i.e., someone for whom a taxpayer is entitled to take a deduction on his/her personal income tax return.

B. Policy

We deduct an allocation for each dependent of a sponsor when deeming the sponsor's income to an alien. See SI 01320.922.
