461-160-0070 Benefits for Less Than a Full Month In the GA, OSIP, REF, SNAP and TANF programs, if in a month a benefit group is eligible for less than a full month's benefits (such as the initial and closing months), benefits for that month are determined as follows: (1) The benefit amount for a full month is determined. (2) The full benefit amount is divided by the number of days in the payment month to determine the daily benefit. (3) The daily benefit is multiplied by the number of days in the month the group is eligible. The result is the benefit amount for the partial month (prorated benefit), except as adjusted by section (4) of this rule. (4) Rounding is used in the calculation of the prorated benefit as follows: (a) In the REF, SNAP and TANF programs, if the prorated benefit is not a whole dollar amount, the prorated benefit is rounded to the next lower whole dollar. (b) In the GA and OSIP programs, the prorated benefit is not rounded.

461-160-0140 How Income and Resources are Used to Determine Eligibility and Benefit for EA The Department considers a client’s income and resources in determining eligibility and benefit level for EA as follows: (1) The financial group’s countable income is compared to the TANF adjusted income payment standard for the benefit group. If countable income equals or exceeds the standard, the benefit group is not eligible. (2) If countable income is less than the standard and the financial group meets all other EA eligibility requirements, the client is required to use all income and resources that are immediately available to meet the emergent need. The EA benefit is calculated by subtracting all income and resources that are immediately available to the client from the amount needed to meet the emergent need. The remainder is the benefit, not to exceed the limit in OAR 461-155-0070.

461-160-0400 Use of Income to Determine Eligibility and Benefits; SNAP In the SNAP program, the countable income (see OAR 461-140-0010) and adjusted income (see OAR 461-001-0000) of the financial group (see OAR 461-110-0530) are used to determine eligibility for SNAP benefits and the benefit level in three steps: (1) Step one: The countable income of the financial group is compared to the need group's countable income limit in OAR 461-155-0190. If the income equals or exceeds the limit, the need group (see OAR 461-110-0630) is ineligible for SNAP benefits. A financial group that is categorically eligible (see OAR 461-135-0505) for SNAP benefits or that includes a client who is elderly (see OAR 461-001-0015) or has a disability (see OAR 461-001-0015) need not pass this step. (2) Step two: If the need group is not ineligible under step one, the adjusted income of the financial group is compared to the need group's adjusted income limit (see OAR 461‑155‑0190). If the income equals or exceeds the limit, the filing group -- except one that is categorically eligible for SNAP benefits -- is ineligible for SNAP benefits. If the adjusted income is less than the limit, the need group meets the income standard for the SNAP program. (3) Step three: The benefit level for an eligible benefit group (see OAR 461-110-0750) is determined as follows --- adjusted income is multiplied by 30 percent, and the product is rounded to the next higher dollar. The result is subtracted from the benefit group’s payment standard (see OAR 461-155-0190). The remainder is the benefit amount.

461-160-0415 Medical Deduction; SNAP (1) This rule explains how to calculate the deduction for medical costs in the SNAP program allowed under OAR 461-160-0055 when incurred by an elderly (see 461-001-0015) member of the filing group (see 461-110-0370) or by a filing group member with a disability (see 461-001-0015). (2) For each certification period (see OAR 461-001-0000), the Department estimates the amount of the client's medical deduction and apportions the amount evenly among the months in the certification period. For medical costs payable during the month of certification, the client may choose to deduct each cost in the month of certification or to average the cost over the certification period. (3) For medical costs that were not anticipated when the deduction was estimated but are incurred and reported to the Department during the certification period, the client may choose to deduct each cost: (a) In the month after the cost is reported; or (b) By averaging the cost over the period from the month after the cost was reported to the end of the certification period. (4) If the client is billed in the last month of a certification period for a medical cost that is due after the certification period, and the client does not pay the bill during the certification period, the cost may be used to compute the deduction in the next certification period. (5) Medical costs paid with a credit card are treated the same as if the cost were paid in full. The ongoing credit card payments are not an allowable medical deduction. (6) A medical cost is not deductible in any of the following situations: (a) The client reports a paid medical cost in the last month of the redetermination period, but reports this cost after their benefits for that month have already been issued. (b) The medical cost is past due, is an amount carried forward from a previous billing period, or has been paid by the client in a previous certification period. (c) The client and creditor have agreed on a monthly payment amount, but the client defaults on the agreement.
