9063.2 Count Income Only in the Month Received

Official source

[273.10(c)(2)] Count income anticipated during the certification period only in the month it is expected to be received unless the income is averaged. Whenever a full month's income is anticipated but is received on a weekly, bi-weekly, or semi-monthly basis, convert the income to the monthly amount by multiplying by the appropriate income conversion factor as follows: Weekly - 4.33 Bi-Weekly - 2.16 Semi-monthly - 2 Income conversion procedures also apply to expenses billed on a weekly, bi-weekly, or semi-monthly basis. Count non-recurring lump sum payments as a resource starting with the month received; do not count as income. Wages held at the request of the employee will be considered income to the household in the month the wages would otherwise have been paid by the employer. However, wages held by the employer as a general practice, even if in violation of the law, will not be counted as income to the household, unless the household anticipates that it will ask for and receive an advance or that it will receive income from wages that were previously held by the employer as a general practice and that were, therefore, not previously counted as income by the Division. Count advances on wages as income in the month received only if reasonably anticipated. Households receiving income on a recurring monthly or semi-monthly basis shall not have their monthly income varied merely because of changes in mailing cycles or pay dates or because weekends or holidays cause additional payments to be received in a month.
