Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 19 / Tuesday, January 31, 2017 / Notices
Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI–U).
The poverty guidelines are used as an
eligibility criterion by the Community
Services Block Grant program and a
number of other Federal programs. The
poverty guidelines issued here are a
simplified version of the poverty
thresholds that the Census Bureau uses
to prepare its estimates of the number of
individuals and families in poverty.
As required by law, this update is
accomplished by increasing the latest
published Census Bureau poverty
thresholds by the relevant percentage
change in the Consumer Price Index for
All Urban Consumers (CPI–U). The
guidelines in this 2017 notice reflect the
1.3 percent price increase between
calendar years 2015 and 2016. After this
inflation adjustment, the guidelines are
rounded and adjusted to standardize the
differences between family sizes. In rare
circumstances, the rounding and
standardizing adjustments in the
formula result in small decreases in the
poverty guidelines for some household
sizes even when the inflation factor is
not negative. In cases where the year-toyear change in inflation is not negative
and the rounding and standardizing
adjustments in the formula result in
reductions to the guidelines from the
previous year for some household sizes,
the guidelines for the affected
household sizes are fixed at the prior
year’s guidelines. As in prior years,
these 2017 guidelines are roughly equal
to the poverty thresholds for calendar
year 2016 which the Census Bureau
expects to publish in final form in
September 2017.
The poverty guidelines continue to be
derived from the Census Bureau’s
current official poverty thresholds; they
are not derived from the Census
Bureau’s Supplemental Poverty Measure
(SPM).
The following guideline figures
represent annual income.

Separate poverty guideline figures for
Alaska and Hawaii reflect Office of
Economic Opportunity administrative
practice beginning in the 1966–1970
period. (Note that the Census Bureau
poverty thresholds—the version of the
poverty measure used for statistical
purposes—have never had separate
figures for Alaska and Hawaii.) The
poverty guidelines are not defined for
Puerto Rico or other outlying
jurisdictions. In cases in which a
Federal program using the poverty
guidelines serves any of those
jurisdictions, the Federal office that
administers the program is generally
responsible for deciding whether to use
the contiguous-states-and-DC guidelines
for those jurisdictions or to follow some
other procedure.
Due to confusing legislative language
dating back to 1972, the poverty
guidelines sometimes have been
mistakenly referred to as the ‘‘OMB’’
(Office of Management and Budget)
poverty guidelines or poverty line. In
fact, OMB has never issued the
guidelines; the guidelines are issued
each year by the Department of Health
and Human Services. The poverty
guidelines may be formally referenced
as ‘‘the poverty guidelines updated
periodically in the Federal Register by
the U.S. Department of Health and
PO 00000
Frm 00010
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
Human Services under the authority of
42 U.S.C. 9902(2).’’
Some federal programs use a
percentage multiple of the guidelines
(for example, 125 percent or 185 percent
of the guidelines), as noted in relevant
authorizing legislation or program
regulations. Non-Federal organizations
that use the poverty guidelines under
their own authority in non-Federallyfunded activities also may choose to use
a percentage multiple of the guidelines.
The poverty guidelines do not make a
distinction between farm and non-farm
families, or between aged and non-aged
units. (Only the Census Bureau poverty
thresholds have separate figures for aged
and non-aged one-person and twoperson units.)
Note that this notice does not provide
definitions of such terms as ‘‘income’’ or
‘‘family,’’ because there is considerable
variation in defining these terms among
the different programs that use the
guidelines. These variations are
traceable to the different laws and
regulations that govern the various
programs. This means that questions
such as ‘‘Is income counted before or
after taxes?’’, ‘‘Should a particular type
of income be counted?’’, and ‘‘Should a
particular person be counted as a
member of the family/household?’’ are
actually questions about how a specific
program applies the poverty guidelines.
All such questions about how a specific
program applies the guidelines should
be directed to the entity that administers
or funds the program, since that entity
has the responsibility for defining such
terms as ‘‘income’’ or ‘‘family,’’ to the
extent that these terms are not already
defined for the program in legislation or
regulations.

Services.
