Section 16.03.04.163 - SPECIAL CONSIDERATION OF INCOME FOR DESTITUTE HOUSEHOLDS
Current through August 31, 2023
Special consideration of income for destitute households is listed below. The rules for destitute households apply at initial application, a six-month or twelve-month contact, and recertification, but only for the first month of each contact or certification period. (3-17-22)
01. Travel Advances. For destitute eligibility and benefit level, travel advances apply as follows: Travel advances from employers for travel costs to a new employment location are excluded. Travel advances against future wages are counted as income, but not a new source of income. (3-17-22)
02. Household Member Changes Job. A person changing jobs with the same employer is still getting income from the same source. A migrant's income source is the grower, not the crew chief. When a migrant moves with a crew chief from one (1) grower to another, the income from the first grower is ended. The income from the next grower is new income. (3-17-22)
03. Recertification or Six-Month or Twelve-Month Contact. Disregard income from the new source for the first month of the new certification period if more than twenty-five dollars ($25) will not be received by the tenth calendar day after the normal issuance. (3-17-22)
