During any of the three ABAWD months or after the three ABAWD months have been received, if an individual becomes exempt the ABAWD provisions no longer apply.

 

Examples:

1. Exempt from food stamp work requirements, turning age 50, physically or mentally unable to work, a dependent child enters the household or pregnancy.
2. An individual received the three ABAWD months in January, February and March. On March 18, the individual comes in to be recertified and reports employment of 20 hours per week that started on February 2.

 

The recertification application should be approved if verification is obtained supporting that the individual is working 20 hours per week averaged.

 

Because the individual failed to timely report the employment February and March remain ABAWD count months and the worker must use 10-10-10 provisions to determine whether or not there is a claim.
