(1) In order to provide services to the greatest number of individuals, the Department offsets costs by charging fees based on income and family size for some services. Refer to Appendix A for current fee schedules and income scales for applicable services.

(2) "Family" means the basic family unit consisting of an adult and his or her spouse (including common-law) and children under 18 (or under 21 if in school) related by blood, marriage or adoption who are residing in the same household. A member of this basic family unit temporarily out of the home--for example, attending school but returning for holidays and vacations, or hospitalized--continues to be considered a part of the family. Considered as separate families are:

(a) Related persons 18 years of age or over, other than spouses, who live together;

(b) Unrelated persons 18 years of age or over who live together;

(c) Children for whom the Department, another State Department, or licensed child-placing agency has legal custody or planning responsibility and who are in need of placement in a foster care facility with the following exception: If the Department, another State Department or licensed child-placing agency has only planning responsibility for children in need of Residential Care Services for Individuals with Exceptional Needs, these children must be considered a part of their own family in determining eligibility;

(d) Children for whom the Department has custody or planning responsibility who are living with relatives other than parents; and

(e) Individuals under 18 years of age who are:
1. married; or

2. self-supporting and living apart from the basic family unit; or

3. grantee relatives for their own children or siblings (for purposes of considering family income).
