Even though the household can receive uncapped shelter deductions, both the gross and net income tests must be passed if the disqualified/excluded person was the only elderly or disabled person in the household. Do not count the disqualified/excluded person in determining the household's size, resource or income limits. 422.4 Adverse Action (toc) A notice of adverse action is not required when disqualifying a member for intentional program violation (IPV); however, notify the household, allowing adverse action, when disqualifying a member for fleeing felon status. To meet the advance notice requirements, notice of an action to reduce or terminate benefits must be taken (posted) in the computer at least 14 days in advance to ensure the computer-generated notice is mailed on time. If the case circumstances require a local notice print, posting can be done on the 13th advance notice date. When counting the 13-day advance adverse action notification period, weekends and holidays must be included. 422.5 System Entries for Intentional Program Violations (IPVs) (toc) Refer to the AMPS User Task Guides instructions to end a disqualification period for Intentional Program Violation (IPV), • change the disqualification code in the system to an eligible code for the applicable footer months; and • update other applicable computer screens to reflect the newly eligible member. 422.6 Ending IPV Disqualifications (toc) The person previously disqualified for an IPV is added to the household the month after their disqualification ends.
