TANF TANF TANF TANF TANF TANF TANF TANF SNAP SNAP SNAP SNAP SNAP SNAP SNAP SNAP 630.1.3 Income Prorated/Needs Not Included The gross income of the following individuals is prorated to the eligible members of the household, but their needs are not included when determining the household size. • Individuals not meeting SSN requirements. • Individuals not meeting citizenship requirements. • Individuals ineligible due to Able Bodied Adults Without Dependents (ABAWD) limitations. When prorating an ineligible, disqualified or excluded (otherwise required) household member whose needs are included in the TANF benefit, apply the following manual budgeting computation from the case example below before assigning and posting income in the system. Example: The TANF payment includes two dependent children and a non-qualified non-citizen parent who is eligible for TANF because of Legal Permanent Residency (LPR) status prior to 8/22/96 but is ineligible for SNAP because they do not meet the qualified non-citizen provisions in SNAP. This becomes a two-person SNAP household, which excludes the non-qualified parent, and a three- person TANF household receiving a TANF grant of $383. The system should: • DIVIDE three into $383, which equals $128 per person; • ASSIGN $128 to the non-qualified non-citizen member; • ASSIGN $128 to each of the two dependent children by member; • PRORATE the non-qualified non-citizen TANF portion of $128 among the three household members ($128 ÷ 3 = $42.66, 2 x $42.66 = $85.32).
