Example: 1 A client applies for HIP on 1/10 with a new app and reports a new a new job with start date of 1/5/22. Applicant will receive first pay on 1/22 and pay frequency is weekly. The worker verifies recipient will receive a partial pay of $50 and then $100 a week there after. The CSCD date on the {Person Information/Earned Income Details screen defaults date to the first of the month, three months prior to the Application File Date (10/1), Since income has been verified, but not received the anticipated amount, type, and frequency should be updated. The earned income work sheet should contain $50 for first payment and $100 for second payment. The number of hours and verification fields are mandatory and must be completed on the Earned Income Worksheet Details screen.
Income Date Amount Actual/Anticipated Reason to Exclude Number of Hours Verification 1/22 50.00 Anticipated Unverified 1/29 100.00 Anticipated Unverified January’s budget will be $150 (50 + 100) and February and thereafter will be $430 (100 X 4.3)
If this same situation were new information reported at a 1/10 redet, these pays would then be listed as “Excluded” for the first pay and Anticipated for the second pay. When there is a reason to exclude a paystub from ongoing monthly averaged budget, the reason must be manually entered. Pays that are unusually high, unusually low, or irregular may be excluded from ongoing budget. While rare, the client could report at a 1/10 redet that he will be starting a job in February and will be paid bi-weekly with the only one check being received in late February. The worker would correctly project the one actual pay for February since the February budget is not in effect yet. Income Date Amount Actual/Anticipated Reason to Exclude Number of Hours Verification 2/22 200.00 Anticipated Unverified
February would be budgeting $200 (actual), and March would be budgeting $430 (200 X 2.15). Note: For MAGI categories, in addition to entering income in the other appropriate screens (i.e., Unearned, earned income and/or Self-employment) worker will need to enter the income in the MAGI Income Details page.
