§ 10:90-3.4 Determining initial financial eligibility for employable WFNJ/GA assistance units

(a) For the initial financial eligibility test, that is, in order to determine initial financial eligibility for assistance units composed of employable single adults or couples without dependent children, who are applying for WFNJ/GA as a new applicant, reapplicant or reopened case, all countable income available to the assistance unit shall be considered and compared to the initial maximum allowable income levels for the appropriate eligible assistance unit size in Schedule III at N.J.A.C. 10:90-3.5. If the assistance unit has income equal to or less than the initial maximum allowable income level for the appropriate unit size, then WFNJ/GA initial financial eligibility exists. (b) WFNJ/GA initial maximum allowable financial income eligibility levels are based on 150 percent of the maximum benefit payment levels (provided within the limit of funds appropriated by the Legislature) for the appropriate assistance unit size in Schedule IV at N.J.A.C. 10:90-3.5. 1. When an eligible WFNJ/GA assistance unit is composed of a couple without dependent children and at least one individual is employable, Schedule III shall be used to determine initial financial eligibility.
