Guidance: A recipient who has not paid the sliding fee under any eligibility for child care may be ineligible for other fee-paying child care until the recipient has made a satisfactory arrangement with the provider for payment of the earlier fee. The recipient is required only to make arrangements with the previous provider; they are not required to pay the fee in total before receiving other fee-paying child care. At redetermination, the Department verified that the recipient has made payments towards the back fee and may close the case if the back fee has not been paid.

392 NAC Chapter 2-011.01 TRANSITIONAL CHILD CARE FAMILY Guidance: INITIAL ELIGIBILITY: A family’s income must not be greater than 185% of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL) at initial application to be eligible for child care subsidy. (1) 0% FPL to 100% FPL = No sliding family fee (2) 100% FPL to 185% FPL = Sliding family fee (3) Over 185% FPL = Over income, not eligible

ON-GOING ELIGIBILITY: (1) If a family’s income exceeds 200% FPL during their certification period, they will continue to remain eligible for transitional child care (TCC) through the rest of their certification period as long as their income is under 85% of the State Median Income (SMI). (a) If their income exceeds 85% SMI, child care subsidy is closed and they are no longer eligible.
