Determining Prospective Income for Persons Added or Removed 400-28-75-25
(Revised 11/1/11 ML #3295)
The gross income of an individual being removed from the household is no longer counted effective the month the individual is deleted from the household.
The income of individuals being added to the household must be considered effective the month they are added.
If adding and removing persons at the same time:
- The income for all persons being removed is no longer used
- The income of all persons added is used
- The new household size must be determined
- The income of the existing household members remains unchanged
- The change in the household’s income and household size is applied to the Child Care Sliding Fee Schedule.
If all gross income from a specific source is available for the month the individual entered the home and the individual does not anticipate any changes, that income must be verified.
- If the caretaker provides the verification in the allotted timeframe, that income must be used for the remaining months of the certification period.
- If the caretaker does not provide the verification in the allotted timeframe, the case must be closed.
If all gross income from a specific source is not available for the month the individual entered the home, the income from the prior month reflects next month’s income and the individual does not anticipate any changes, that income must be verified.
- If the caretaker provides the verification in the allotted timeframe, that income must be used for the remaining months of the certification period.
- If the caretaker does not provide the verification in the allotted timeframe, the case must be closed.
If all gross income from a specific source is available for the month the individual entered the home or the prior month and the individual anticipates a change in income for the next month, the caretaker must provide verification of anticipated income for the next month.
- If the caretaker provides the verification in the allotted timeframe, that income must be used for the remaining months of the certification period.
- If the caretaker does not provide the verification in the allotted timeframe, the case must be closed.
If all gross income from a specific source for the month the individual entered the home, the month prior to the month the individual entered the home or the month following the month the individual entered the home is not reflective of the income for the remainder of the certificate period, the caretaker must provide verification of anticipated monthly income for the remainder of the certificate period.
- If the caretaker provides the verification in the allotted timeframe, that income is used for the remainder of the certification period.
- If the caretaker does not provide the verification in the allotted timeframe, the case must be closed. If all income from a specific source is available for the month the individual entered the home and the individual anticipates a change in income for the next month, the caretaker must provide verification of anticipated income for the next month and that income must be used for all remaining months of the certificate period.
