Universal Citation: 7 AK Admin Code 47.549

Current through August 30, 2024

(a) An individual is eligible for assistance under AS 47.45.301-47.45.309 and 7 AAC 47.547 - 7 AAC 47.599 if the individual or the individual's household has a total annual gross income for the calendar year in which the application is received that does not exceed the appropriate income levels in AS 47.45.302(a)(4). In this subsection, "individual's household" means the individual and the individual's spouse if they are living together.

(b) In determining total annual gross income under this section, the department will not

(1) include any payment received under AS 43.23 (permanent fund dividends) as income; or

(2) count income that is not legally available to the individual to spend for the individual's basic needs.

Section 1, ch. 11, SLA 2016 renumbered former AS 47.45.302(a)(3) as AS 47.45.302(a)(4), without amending the substance of that provision. As of Register 219 (October 2016), the regulations attorney made a conforming technical revision under AS 44.62.125(b)(6), to 7 AAC 47.549(a) so that a cross-reference to former AS 47.45.302(a)(3) now refers to the renumbered paragraph, AS 47.45.302(a)(4).
