  • RS 00605.910 Family Maximum Chart
  • This chart can be used when a family maximum is needed for a retirement or survivor claim or for a disability claim with entitlement prior to July 1980. It is based on a PIA computed using an eligibility year of 1979 or later. It reduces the number of calculations to one. This chart is updated annually to reflect new bend points. The maximum derived is the maximum in the first year of eligibility, prior to any applicable COLAs. Refer to RS 00615.742 for rules on computing a maximum for a disability claim with entitlement after June 1980.
