The IPV disqualification period continues even if no ADC grant is being issued to the family.
Example #1: The mother in a single-parent ADC household has been found to have committed her first IPV due to unreported income. Her IPV disqualification period is for 12 months, from June through the following May. Her needs were removed from the ADC grant effective with the June grant payment. In October she obtains employment which causes the ADC grant to close and the family goes into TMA effective November.
TMA continues until April, when Mom is laid off and requests to reapply for an ADC grant. Eligibility is determined and Mom is now in Month 11 of her 12-month period of IPV disqualification. Her needs can potentially be re-added to the ADC grant starting with the month of June.
Example #2: The father in a two-parent ADC family is found to have committed an IPV due to failure to report a second job. This is the second IPV disqualification for him, and the Director has imposed a 24-month disqualification period. His needs are removed from the ADC grant unit in February.
In July, the family notifies their worker that they are moving to another state. The ADC case is closed effective August. The following March, the family moves back to Nebraska and reapplies for ADC. The worker determines that the IPV disqualification period for the father is now in Month 14. The IPV disqualification period continued even though the family was living in another state and the Nebraska ADC case was closed.
