Important Guideline (Only For HQ)

 

 

 

If your spouse was not employed during a particular calendar year and had no other source of income, select the $0 to $29,999 gross salary range. The salary ranges above $30,000 are in ranges of $1,000 because if the spouse¡¯s gross salary exceeds $30,000 in a year, the benefit for next year is reduced by 1 percent for each $1,000 the spouse earns over $30,000. There is no reduction when the spouse earns less than $30,000 gross. For this reason, the exact income below that amount is not required.
