In the situation where the income over 130% was not reported and the income fluctuates over and under the limit in succeeding months, a claim must be done for all months, using projected income. The projected income amount will be based on the income received 30 days prior to the 23rd of the month in which it should have been reported. This projected income amount will be used each claim month until a change in income is reported, a redetermination is held, or an Interim Report is received. If the claim period continues past one of those points, then the converted income will be calculated using the pays received in the 30 days prior to that change, interim or redetermination date. Prior to 12/1/2020, actual gross income was used in these calculations.

Exception: If the client withholds information or gives erroneous information at the application or redetermination interview, the claim starts with the beginning of the new certification period, whether or not it is 36 days later. If information is withheld from the Interim Report, the claim starts with the effective date of the Interim Report. 4620.05.10 TOTAL INELIGIBILITY

Failure to meet certain eligibility requirements will render an AG totally ineligible, thus negating the necessity for individual monthly calculations. These eligibility factors are: • State residency; • Excess resources; • Excess gross income; • Duplicate participation of an AG; • Entire AG made up of ineligible aliens and/or ineligible students or individuals who fail to comply with SSN requirements;

For TANF: Note: if the verifications are received by the 90th day from the mailing of the claim should be re- calculated using actual information.

For SNAP: Note: if verifications are not provided by the AG and cannot be obtained by any other method, there is not sufficient information to calculate a claim and therefore no claim may be calculated. 4620.10.00 DETERMINING THE AMOUNT OF OVER-ISSUANCE

General procedure: • Eligibility factors that require individual monthly budgetary calculations to determine eligibility and allotment amounts will be figured offline. • If an over-issuance was caused by the AG's failure to report income, the worker will not include any newly reported deductions from that income such as dependent care. • Do not apply the earned income deduction to that part of any earned income that the household failed to report in a timely manner when this act is the basis for the claim. • Benefits are considered “issued” when posted to the EBT account. • Expunged benefits are not considered in the claim.
