Rescission of Social Security Acquiescence Ruling 99-1(2)

AGENCY: Social Security Administration.

ACTION: Notice of Rescission of Social Security Acquiescence Ruling 99-
1(2)--Florez on Behalf of Wallace v. Callahan, 156 F.3d 438 (2d Cir. 
1998).

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In accordance with 20 CFR 402.35(b)(1), 404.985(e) and 
416.1485(e), the Commissioner of Social Security gives notice of the 
rescission of Social Security Acquiescence Ruling 99-1(2).

DATES: Effective Date: June 16, 2008.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Richard Bresnick, Social Security 
Administration, 6401 Security Boulevard, Baltimore, MD 21235-6401, 
(410) 965-1758, for information about this notice. For information on 
eligibility or filing for benefits, call our national toll-free number,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: A Social Security Acquiescence Ruling 
explains how we will apply a holding in a decision of a United States 
Court of Appeals that we determine conflicts with our interpretation of 
a provision of the Social Security Act (the Act) or regulations when 
the Government has decided not to seek further review of the case or is 
unsuccessful on further review.
    As provided by 20 CFR 404.985(e)(4) and 416.1485(e)(4), a Social 
Security Acquiescence Ruling may be rescinded as obsolete if we 
subsequently clarify, modify, or revoke the regulation or ruling that 
was the subject of a circuit court holding that we determined conflicts 
with our interpretation of the Act or regulations.
    On February 1, 1999 we issued Acquiescence Ruling 99-1(2) to 
reflect the decision of the United States Court of Appeals for the 
Second Circuit in Florez on Behalf of Wallace v. Callahan, 156 F.3d 438 
(2d Cir. 1998), in which the court held that 20 CFR 416.1101 creates a 
two-part test for determining whether a spouse, who lives with a child 
eligible for SSI, is an ineligible parent for deeming purposes under 20 
CFR 416.1160: (1) The spouse must live with the natural or adoptive 
parent; and (2) the relationship must be as husband or wife, as further 
defined in 20 CFR 416.1806.
    In a final rule that we also are publishing today that will be 
effective

[[Page 28182]]

on June 16, 2008, we are adopting the court's rationale and changing 
the SSI parent-to-child deeming rules so that we no longer will 
consider the income and resources of a stepparent when an eligible 
child resides in the household with a stepparent, but that child's 
natural or adoptive parent has permanently left the household. These 
rules respond to the circuit court decision and establish a uniform 
national policy with respect to this issue.

Commissioner of Social Security.
