The following table displays the different IRTs for various household types. The CDSS will release further guidance on informing households of their IRT in a subsequent ACL. Household Type NACF CalFresh No Ineligible or Excluded Household Member NACF CalFresh Sanctioned Individual* Not Categorically Eligible Public Assistance CalFresh (PACF) All members are PACF Receiving CalFresh Mixed Household Some members receive PACF All members receive CalFresh IRT Level 200% 130% CalWORKs IRT 2 IRTs (one for CalWORKs; one for CalFresh) Note: If an MCE PACF household in which all members are receiving CalFresh reports income in excess of the CalWORKs IRT and CalWORKs is terminated, the household is eligible for Transitional CalFresh. * A Sanctioned Individual may include: Any household member disqualified for an IPV. The head of household does not comply with work requirements. Any member of a household who has been convicted of a drug-related felony (refer to MPP Section 63-402.229). [Note: With the passage of AB 1468 (Chapter 26, Statues of 2014) which removes the drug felon ban in California effective April 1, 2015, this may no longer apply. CDSS will address this issue in subsequent guidance.]
