DEPARTMENT FOR AGING AND REHABILITATIVE SERVICES AUXILIARY GRANT PROGRAM NON-SSI INCOME SOURCES 07/19 CHAPTER I, PAGE 61

The worker determined that Mr. Smith did not receive AG during the 2015 overpayment period but did receive AG during the 2014 period and that the overpaid amount was used in determining his AG. Therefore, the double counting exception applies to the 2014 overpayment but does not apply to the 2015 overpayment. The worker must consider that the withheld amount is being used to pay the 2015 overpayment first as the double counting exception does not apply to it. This means the $100 being withheld for the first five months, August through November 2015, will be counted as income in determining the AG payment. The $100 withheld for December 2015 through March 2016 will not be counted as income.
