+Count active farm income and partnership self-employment earnings as earned income for SSI and programs using its income sources. Under SSI, apply excess business losses to a spouse's earnings without reducing unearned income or creating negative student exclusions, and keep MN deeming budgets consistent. Connecticut SSP and Maryland PAA count an applicant's own earnings without that offset, which no Connecticut or Maryland text adopts, so a spouse's loss no longer reduces them. Floor New Hampshire adult assistance's combined self-employment income before adding wages. For Kentucky State Supplementation, read 921 KAR 2:015 section 8(1) and Volume IVA MS 2450 B.4, C.7 and C.8(b) to count each business's profit at no less than zero: no Kentucky text authorizes losses against other income, and C.8(b) bars transfers between businesses. Losses reduce neither another business's profit, wages, nor a spouse's earnings, unlike SSI under POMS SI 00820.210 A.2 and B.2.b-c. Keep Minnesota gross-income premium restoration from creating income while business losses remain unabsorbed. In the SSI substantial gainful activity test, a self-employment loss from any business source no longer reduces wages (POMS DI 10505.015 D.3); losses still net between businesses. Idaho AABD counts a net farm loss as zero (IDAPA 16.03.05.403.06), and Indiana SAPN counts a net self-employment loss as zero (IHCPPM 3410.15.00), so neither lets that loss reduce wages.
