Current through Register 1531, September 27, 2024

A retroactive Social Security benefit is a payment made to a client for the period of time from the application date of said benefit to the approval date. The retroactive Social Security payment received is considered available unearned income to determine the needs of all members of the assistance unit until such time as the funds are no longer available to the assistance unit.

Retroactive Social Security income is unavailable to the assistance unit when the income has been used as an expenditure for the assistance unit as provided in 106 CMR 704.240(B)(4) or 704.240(F)(2) and (3).

Verification of the retroactive Social Security benefit is by:

(A) a copy of the benefit or award letter;

(B) a copy of the check or payment document; or

(C) written statement from the agency or person making the payment.
