Mr. A’s current gross social security income is $940. He was canceled in May 1998. His gross social security income was then $461.60. To determine his eligibility, the worker must determine what his gross social security would be if he received only COLA increases since his cancellation. If there were no increases other than COLAs, this calculation should equal the current gross social security of $900. Allow for the $2 difference due to rounding.

Since the actual amount is $940.00, the conclusion is that there was an increase of $13.20 in social security benefits other than COLAs.
