TMA Example 9

Same situation as Example 8, however, the ADC unit is in the 8th month of the 12 months of TMA when Dad returns to the household. Again, Dad is added to the TMA unit and his income is considered when the three month average income is computed in month 10 to determine if the unit is over 185% FPL for months 11 and 12. Dad is also added to the FPL level. If the unit's income remains under 185% FPL, the family remains eligible for TMA. If the unit's income is over the 185% FPL, the case is closed the end of month 10 and the children's eligibility for Kids Connection is determined, i.e., with earned income disregards.

Note: You would already have received Mom's report of her 3 months earnings in month 10. You would look prospectively at Dad's income for months 11 and 12.
