A designated new spouse under Minnesota Statutes, section 256P.06 , subdivision 2, paragraph (c), is exempt from having the designated new spouse's earned and unearned income counted when the designated new spouse's family income before exemption does not exceed 67 percent of the state median income and the family verifies the marriage date. If a family meets these requirements, the designated new spouse's earned and unearned income no longer counts for two service periods after a CCAP agency receives verification of the marriage date and continues not to count for up to 26 service periods.
