REDETERMINATION: (1) At redetermination, if a family’s income does not exceed 200% FPL, TCC is reauthorized for another 12 months (up to 18 if aligning with another program). (a) There are no time limits for TCC, therefore at each redetermination the family will remain eligible for TCC as long as their income does not exceed 200% FPL and all other eligibility factors continue to be met. (b) During this certification period, if the family’s income exceeds 200% FPL, but remains under 85% SMI, they will remain eligible through the rest of their certification period. (c) If income exceeds 85% SMI, then child care subsidy is closed and they are no longer eligible.
Beginning October 1, 2026, the following FPL and SMI amounts will go into effect:
