What it does

The SSI Savings Penalty Elimination Act would raise the resource limits for Supplemental Security Income (SSI) eligibility from $2,250 to $20,000 for individuals and from $1,500 to $10,000 for couples, effective in calendar year 2025. These updated limits would be adjusted annually for inflation based on the Consumer Price Index, ensuring they keep pace with cost-of-living changes. The bill affects low-income individuals who rely on SSI by allowing them to save more money without losing eligibility for benefits.
