3. CONTRACT EMPLOYEES
A. GENERAL RULE
Contract income is averaged over a twelve month period when it represents the household's largest income source anticipated for the 12-month period, provided it is not paid on an hourly or piecework basis. This applies even when it is received in a shorter period of time such as sometimes occurs with teachers and other school employees.
Contract income is averaged over the period the income was intended to cover when it is not the household's largest income source anticipated for the 12-month period, provided it is not paid on an hourly or piecework basis.
B. DETERMINING ELIGIBILITY
The averaged contractual income is added to other household income. Income exclusions and deductions shall then be applied in the usual way.
