Recipients of supplemental security income and the student earned income exclusion.
This article presents the results of a first effort to create and statistically analyze a data set containing detailed information on the Student Earned Income Exclusion (SEIE), which is part of the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program. It presents descriptive statistics on (1) demographic characteristics of SSI recipients with SEIE; (2) various measures of SEIE use, such as dollar amounts excluded per year, numbers of months of use per year, and percentages of SSI recipients using the SEIE; (3) seasonal patterns in SEIE use based on month-by-month SEIE amounts; and (4) seasonal patterns in factors driving month-by-month gains and losses of SEIE eligibility, including changes in earnings, student status, age, and eligibility for SSI, as well as effects of the annual SEIE limit.
