Questão jurídica principal
Whether a hypothetical earning capacity of the spouse had to be included in supplementary benefits
Decisão extraída
Yes. The spouse was still considered capable of earning and had not shown sufficiently intensive job-search efforts to make the imputed income unjustified.
Fundamentação extraída
For a non-disabled spouse, hypothetical income may be counted if a reasonable earning capacity is not used. The wife was under 60, with enough remaining working time, and had not registered with the RAV or demonstrated adequate, sustained job applications.
