3.2.1.F Strikers When the AG includes an individual who is on strike, the AG is ineligible for the duration of the strike unless: • The AG was eligible for or receiving SNAP benefits the day prior to the strike; or • The individual who is participating in the strike is exempt from work requirements for any reason other than employment. Refer to Chapter 14. To determine if an AG containing a striker is eligible, the Worker must determine pre-strike eligibility and current eligibility. See Section 4.4.4. 3.2.2 THE INCOME GROUP (IG) The income group includes all AG members and all individuals who live with the AG and would otherwise be included in the AG if not ineligible, disqualified, or excluded by law. This includes ineligible non-citizens, those excluded by law, disqualified due to an IPV or for trafficking SNAP for a controlled substance, and those who fail to meet the enumeration requirement. See Section 4.4 to determine how to count the income and deductions. Ineligible students and individuals who are ineligible due to receipt in another state are not included in the IG. 3.2.3 THE NEEDS GROUP (NG) The income limit for the number of eligible individuals in the AG is used to determine eligibility and the amount of the benefit. Normally, all AG members are included in one case number. However, some SNAP AG members may be eligible for other benefits that, due to eligibility limitations, must be issued in another case number.
