PART 229_SOCIAL SECURITY OVERALL MINIMUM GUARANTEE--Table of Contents
 
            Subpart F_Computation of the Overall Minimum Rate
 
Sec. 229.56  Reduction for child's social security benefit.

    A child's benefit under the overall minimum, after any adjustment 
for the family maximum, is reduced, but not below zero, by the amount of 
any social security benefit being paid to the child on other than the 
employee's earnings record. If the social security benefit is equal to 
or higher than the child's overall minimum benefit and the family 
maximum applies, the overall minimum rate is recomputed so that the 
child is not included, if it would result in a higher overall minimum 
rate.
