Title 7: SNAP Page 52 Iowa Department of Health and Human Services Employees’ Manual Chapter I: Specific Households and Participants Ineligible Household Members Revised February 13, 2026 Resources of Ineligible Household Members NOTE: When a person is both an ineligible alien and an ineligible student use the policies for ineligible aliens. Follow policies in 7-G when acting on changes for ineligible household members. Resources of Ineligible Household Members Legal reference: 7 CFR 273.8(e)(13) and (j), 273.11(c) and (d) Use the same resource policies for ineligible members as you do for eligible members to determine whether a resource is countable or not. See 7-D, Whose Resources to Count for what resources are and are not counted. Count the entire value of the resources of the following ineligible household members towards the eligible household’s resource limit, unless the resources are exempt by policies in 7-D:  Ineligible aliens  People disqualified for intentional program violation  People who fail to provide a social security number  NAC matched individuals who fail to respond to the NAC match at application, recertification, or the addition of a new household member  People disqualified for failing to comply with a mandatory work registrant requirement  Ineligible ABAWDs  Fleeing felons and parole and probation violators Do not count the value of any of the resources of an ineligible student towards the eligible household’s resource limit. Income and Deductions of Ineligible Household Members Legal reference: 7 CFR 273.11(c), 87 FR 59633 Use the same income policies for an ineligible member’s income as you do for eligible members. Income that is excluded for eligible household members is also excluded for ineligible household members. Earned versus unearned income policies also apply the same for ineligible members. Deductions that are allowable for eligible members may be allowed for ineligible members. The reason a person is ineligible determines what and how much is allowed as a deduction for the eligible household.
