由于 SSI 资源限制，千禧一代自闭症夫妇面临经济“婚姻惩罚”。 Millennial autistic couple faces financial "marriage penalty" due to SSI resource limits.

千禧一代夫妇詹妮弗·厄普代克和刘易斯·弗雷戴特都患有自闭症，如果他们结婚，他们将面临经济上的“婚姻惩罚”。 Millennial couple Jennifer Updike and Lewis Fredette, both on the autism spectrum, face a financial "marriage penalty" if they tie the knot. SSI 资源限制将使他们每月的综合收入减少 300 美元，并将他们的综合储蓄限制在 3,000 美元，比他们个人的储蓄少 1,000 美元。 SSI resource limits would reduce their combined income by $300 monthly and restrict their combined savings to $3,000, $1,000 less than they could have individually. 根据财务后果做出的决定，这对夫妇决定无限期地保持订婚关系。 With a decision based on financial consequences, the couple has decided to remain engaged indefinitely.
