Wash. Admin. Code § 388-478-0057 - Adjustments to the SSI state supplement payments (SSP)

For the purposes of this rule, "we" refers to the department of social and health services. We are required by federal law to maintain the total SSI state supplement payments (SSP) at the same level each year, without an increase or decrease in total spending. We may adjust your SSI state supplement payment amount as necessary to comply with federal law.

(1) When there are unexpended funds, you will receive a one-time additional payment, usually at the end of the calendar year.

(2) When there is a shortage in available funds, we will decrease your SSP benefits to maintain the total SSP payment spending at the same level each year.
