Title 13: Social Service Resources Page 62 Iowa Department of Health and Human Services Employees’ Manual Chapter G: Child Care Assistance Determining Eligiblity Revised June 14, 2024 CCA Exit Program

4. Mr. and Ms. D have two children and the family receives FIP. No income calculation is necessary to determine eligibility for this household. 5. Ms. E has two children, so this is a household of three. She works 32 hours per week and earns $350 per week. She receives $100 a week in child support for her children. The family returns a Child Care Review to the Department in July that includes verification of June’s income. June had five paydays and she received five child support checks. Calculate her gross monthly income prospectively as follows: Earnings $ 350.00 June 1 $ 350.00 June 8 $ 350.00 June 15 $ 350.00 June 22 $ 350.00 June 29 ÷ 5 $ 350.00 X 4 $ 1,400 Child support $ 100.00 June 1 $ 100.00 June 8 $ 100.00 June 15 $ 100.00 June 22 $ 100.00 June 29 ÷ 5 $ 100.00 X 4 $ 400

The income is converted into a normal month. This household has gross income of $1,800 ($1,400 + $400), and the fee is $0.00. 6. Ms. F has one child, so this is a household of two. She works 32 hours per week and earns $320 per week. She receives child support for her child of $50 per week. The family applies for CCA on July 3. Ms. F received the following child support: 6/7/16 $ 50 6/14/16 $ 200 6/21/16 $ 50 6/28/16 $ 50 7/5/16 $ 50 7/12/16 $ 50

Calculate her gross monthly income prospectively as follows: Earnings $ 320.00 x 4 $1,280.00 Child support $ 50.00 x 4 $ 200.00

The extra $150 of the $200 child support payment is not included in the income calculation because the client does not expect to receive this weekly amount again. The household has a gross income of $1,480 ($1,280 + $200) and a fee of $0.00.
