This section shall apply to qualified non-citizens who entered the country on or after August 22, 1996. A. If a client is a sponsored qualified non-citizen, he or she shall be responsible for the provision of any information and documentation related to the sponsor(s) and shall obtain cooperation from the sponsor(s) necessary to determine: 1. The identity and current address and contact information of the sponsor(s); 2. The relationship of the sponsor(s) to the qualified non-citizen; 3. Income and resources of the sponsor(s), which may be deemed available to the qualified non-citizen or recovered for repayment of grant payments paid to or on behalf of the qualified non-citizen. B. It shall be presumed that an affidavit of support demonstrates the sponsor's ability to make income and resources available to a non-citizen whom he or she sponsors at a minimum of one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the Federal Poverty Guidelines, as defined in 3.510. Sponsors are expected to meet their financial commitments to the qualified non-citizen whom they sponsor and for whom they signed an affidavit of support until such time as the: 1. Qualified non-citizen has obtained U.S. citizenship; 2. Qualified non-citizen has worked, or can be credited with forty (40) qualifying quarters of coverage under Title II of the Federal Social Security Act, 42 U.S.C. Section 413 (2018); 3. Qualified non-citizen leaves the United States and gives up lawful permanent resident status; 4. Qualified non-citizen dies; 5. Sponsor of the qualified non-citizen dies. The death of one sponsor does not terminate the support obligation of a joint sponsor. The sponsor's estate shall be required to repay public benefits; or 6. Qualified non-citizen becomes subject to removal proceedings, but he or she applies for and obtains a new grant of admission status in those proceedings based on a new affidavit of support, if one is required. C. Income and resources of the sponsor(s) shall be deemed to the client, as follows: 1. Sponsor deeming shall not apply to qualified non-citizens admitted as refugees or as political asylees. A non-citizen whose status as a political asylee or refugee has not yet been determined or finalized because his or her application to become a qualified noncitizen is in a pending status or for some other reason shall not be considered a qualified non-citizen admitted as a political asylee or refugee, and therefore, such non-citizen is not eligible to receive grant payments. 2. Sponsors who signed sponsorship agreements prior to December 19, 1997, shall not be subject to resource and income deeming. 3. Effective December 19, 1997 through December 31, 2013, sponsor deeming shall apply only to the qualified non-citizen's spouse and/or non- relative sponsor(s) identified in sponsorship agreements signed on or after December 19, 1997. a. A relative is defined as any relation by blood, adoption, or marriage. b. Kinship relations by marriage continue to exist even if the marriage is terminated by death or divorce. 4. Effective January 1, 2014, sponsor deeming shall apply to all of the qualified non-citizen's sponsors identified in sponsorship agreements signed on or after December 19, 1997, no matter the sponsor's relationship to the client. 5. Because the sponsor, not the non-citizen, is solely liable for repayment, the sponsor cannot use the sponsored non-citizen's grant payments to repay the payments. D. If the qualified non-citizen fails to provide information related to the sponsor(s), as outlined in Section 3.520.69.A, assistance shall be denied or discontinued following the policies outlined in Section 3.554. If it is determined that the client received Adult Financial program grant payments because the client failed to provide necessary information related to the sponsor(s) or the sponsor(s) failed to cooperate with the county department in determining income and resources that are required to be deemed to the client, the county department shall recover such funds, as outlined in Section 3.520.69.C. E. Income and resources shall be deemed as outlined in Sections 3.534, 3.520.69.B, and 3.520.72.
