When an ongoing Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP) case is receiving TANF, Diversion or Crossroads and that program is closed, the CCAP case is changed from Waived Co-pay to Co-pay the month following the month the TANF case closes. Because the CCAP case is now Co-pay, income must be used to determine eligibility.
Income that would have been available to the household in the final month of TANF, Diversion or Crossroads must be reviewed. If this specific source of income is reflective of next month’s income, the income must be used for all remaining months of the certificate period.
If the income is not reflective, the caretaker must provide verification of the anticipated income for next month and that income must be used for all remaining months of the certificate period.
