Rule 16.03.04 - IDAHO FOOD STAMP PROGRAM
Section 16.03.04.363 - HUD FAMILY SELF-SUFFICIENCY (FSS) ESCROW ACCOUNT

Universal Citation: ID Admin Code 16.03.04.363
Current through August 31, 2023

Escrow accounts and the interest earned on an escrow account established by HUD for families participating in the Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS) Program established by Section 544 of the National Affordable Housing Act, are excluded as a resource when determining eligibility for food stamps. The federal exclusion for the funds in this program and other similar type escrow funds are only excluded while the funds are still in the escrow account or being used for a HUD approved purpose. Participants in the FSS program may withdraw funds from the escrow account before completing the program, with permission from the public housing authority, but only for purposes related to the goal of the Family Self-Sufficiency contract, such as completion of higher education, job training, or to meet start-up expenses involved in creation of a small business.
