				  members' share is counted as income for the remaining household
				  members.

				  share of the income of the ineligible aliens shall be counted as income to the

				  first subtracting the allowable exclusions from the ineligble aliens' income
				  and dividing the income evenly among all the household members, including the
				  ineligible aliens. All but the ineligible aliens' share shall be counted as
				  income for the remaining eligible household members.
(4) If the prorated income attributed to the
				  household is earned income, the twenty per cent earned income deduction shall
				  be applied to the prorated income.

					 ineligibility of the remaining household members based, as much as possible, on
					 information in the case file and the following action shall be required:
(1) If a household's benefits are reduced or
				  terminated within the certification period because one of its members was
				  excluded because of disqualification for intentional program violation, the
				  branch shall notify the remaining members of their eligibility and benefit
				  level at the same time the excluded member is notified of his or her
				  disqualification. The household shall not be entitled to a notice of adverse
				  action but may request a fair hearing to contest the reduction or termination
				  of benefits, unless the household has already had a fair hearing on the amount
				  of the claim as a result of consolidation of the administrative
				  disqualification hearing with the fair hearing.
(2) If a household's benefits are reduced or
				  terminated within the certification period for reasons other than an
				  intentional program violation disqualification, the branch shall issue a notice
				  of adverse action which informs the household of the ineligibility, the reason
				  for the ineligibility, the eligibility and benefit level of the remaining
				  members, and the action the household must take to end the
				  ineligibility.
