Full Description
Total monthly amount of benefits received at beginning of aged spouse
benefit entitlement. In most cases this amount is from the same month as
in MBR_agedsp_benefit_stdate. However, if data for that month were
missing in the MBR extract, we searched through the monthly benefit array
to find the first positive value. This amount can be a combination of
payments due to multiple entitlement reasons (i.e. dual entitlement).
