The Supplemental Security Income Restoration Act of 2026 clarifies how state tax credit refunds are treated in the SSI program, ensuring that refunds from state earned income tax credits and state child tax credits do not count against SSI benefits for eligible individuals and their spouses. This change simplifies the rules and protects SSI recipients from losing benefits due to these state tax credits. All provisions of the bill take effect one year after enactment, giving the Social Security Administration and other relevant agencies adequate time to implement the program changes.
