001.08(A) REGAINING ELIGIBILITY.

Individuals are ineligible until they are back in compliance with the terms of their sentence. If they are a fleeing felon or in violation of probation or parole then they are eligible once they are no longer fleeing or in violation. The following applies to when individuals can receive benefits after the disqualification ends: (i) If an individual would otherwise be part of a certified household, they become eligible for the first month after: (1) The month in which the individual becomes compliant; and (2) The household reports the individual has become compliant. (ii) If an individual is not able to be added to an already certified household and their compliance did not occur in the month for which previous benefit had closed, then they are eligible for benefits as of the day of compliance. (iii) If an individual is not able to be added to an already certified household but the compliance occurred within 30 days of the date of closure, the benefits can be reinstated as long as the following criteria are met: (1) The compliance occurs on or before the 30th day after the date of closure; (2) The compliance is reported on or before the 30th day after the date of closure; and (3) The compliance is verified within 10 days of the date of report.
