[rehab] SSA - POMS: SI 00820.510 - Student Earned Income Exclusion - 10/24/2014

[Auer,Alissa (DARS)]

Thanks. I couldn't find the definition of student- is it just High School or does college also count?

Dear blind students and rehab counselors:

Please note that effective this year, the Social Security Administration's Student Earned Income Exclusion applies to all blind students, not just those receiving benefits as a disabled child.  That can help lots of students.
Excluded earned income per month: $1,780 maximum Excluded earned income per year: $7,180 maximum The link is as follows: https://secure.ssa.gov/poms.nsf/lnx/0500820510
Since this is an SSA internal document, it isn't the easiest read, but you can understand it.

Hope this helps,
Dick Davis
