When You Are A Full-Time Elementary Or Secondary School Student

We propose to revise our rule on full-time elementary or secondary school students to include students enrolled in home schooling or independent study programs authorized by State or local law, e.g., political subdivision, tribal government, or the District of Columbia. The current rule covers only students in traditional institutional educational settings; however, many States (or other jurisdictions) provide for home schooling and independent study programs considered equivalent to traditional schools. We also propose to clearly show that nonpayment provisions apply to certain prisoners and certain other inmates of publicly funded institutions who otherwise would meet student benefit requirements. In addition, we propose to remove outdated rules on student benefits relating to months before August 1982.
