Universal Citation: MS Code of Rules 23-104-2.7
Current through September 24, 2024
A. Monies received by an individual in his capacity as an agent on another's behalf (such as a representative payee) are not income to him. However, monies a person receives for his own use (not paid on behalf of another) must be evaluated under regular income rules.
1. Example: Mr.
Jones is receiving a Social Security check as the payee for his disabled child.
This check is counted as income for the child, not Mr. Jones.
