ex-husband or ex-wife is absent from the property as provided in subpar-
agraph (ii) of paragraph (d) of this subdivision, then only  the  income
of  the spouse or ex-spouse residing on the property shall be considered
and may not exceed such sum. Such income shall include  social  security
and  retirement  benefits, interest, dividends, total gain from the sale
