MILITARY INCOME
0017.15.93
A blank Leave and Earnings Statement (LES) form is often sent directly to the family or is mailed to the family by the deployed military person. Some households may have access to verification of military pay through the internet, or households may obtain verification of military income by contacting the local military base financial office. Two fields on the LES form that are useful in identifying combat or hazard pay are:
● Field 10 Entitlements: This field identifies combat or hazard pay earned.
● Field 76 Remarks: This field outlines by codes or abbreviations the type of military pay earned. For example the abbreviation HDP = Hazard Duty Pay.
Do not make a Child Support Referral for a MARRIED parent who is called to military duty away from home when there is no breakdown in the marital relationship.
For MAXIS coding instructions, see TEMP Manual TE02.10.90 (Military Families Receiving FS, MFIP or DWP).
MSA: For SSI recipients no action is required, SSA makes all income determinations.
For non-SSI recipients follow GA.
