The review should consider eligibility for other programs and additional efforts which could be made to assist the family in securing a job. Written notices must be mailed to the household within one working day from the date the information is entered into the computer. If the household size decreases sufficiently to affect the amount of the payment, the client must immediately report the change to the local department office. The local department staff must adjust the payment amount for the next payment period. An overpayment will exist from the date of change if the household fails to report as required.
Income is computed on a monthly basis.
Income received and expected to be received during the month is counted. Countable income is subtracted from the base grant amount. Payment is made twice a month. The standard monthly grant is divided by two and prorated by the number of hours the participant performed on the program. Participation periods are the 1st through the 15th and the 16th through the end of any month.
