What and why
Nevada's optional SSI supplement was missing from PolicyEngine-US. Add
nv_osswith verified 2026 state-only rates for independent living, another person's household, and state-certified domiciliary care. Reuse the federal SSI eligibility, income exclusions, resources, and couple calculations; add Nevada's care-setting distinctions and payment tables.The calculation includes mixed-category couples, spouse-to-spouse deeming, cent rounding, and the $1 minimum positive payment. It permits state-only payments after federal SSI is exhausted: for example, an aged individual with $1,030 monthly Social Security has $1,010 countable income, receives no federal SSI, and receives $20.40 Nevada OSS. Add the supplement to household/SPM benefit totals and SNAP unearned income.

Coverage limits
The registry marks Nevada as partial, verified for 2026. This implements optional supplementation; it does not implement individualized minimum-income protection for recipients converted in December 1973. It inherits the existing federal SSI eligibility and income framework. Earlier years use parameter backfilling and are unverified historical estimates; no historical rate coverage is claimed.
