Reimbursements for past or future expenses are excluded if all the following conditions are met:
1. The reimbursement must be provided for a specifically identified expense other than normal living expenses. When a reimbursement covers multiple expenses, each expense does not have to be separately identified as long as none of the reimbursement covers normal living expenses such as rent or mortgage payments, personal clothing, or food eaten at home.
2. The reimbursement must be used for the intended purpose.
3. The reimbursement must not represent a gain or benefit to the household.
The amount by which a reimbursement exceeds the actual expense is counted as unearned income. Reimbursements are not considered to exceed the expense unless the provider or household indicates the amount is excessive.
