TABLE 453 - INCOME DEEMED FROM
						  INELIGIBLE PARENT
Step
Procedure
01.
Compute Child's Living Allowance
Compute the living allowance for each ineligible child
						  in the household. The living allowance is the difference between the basic
						  allowance for a person living alone and the basic allowance for a couple. Round
						  up cents to the next dollar. A child receiving public income-maintenance
						  payments does not get a living allowance.
Subtract the child's unearned income from his living
						  allowance.
Subtract the child's earned income from any living
						  allowance remaining.
Subtract the remaining living allowance, for each
						  ineligible child in the household, from the ineligible parents unearned income.
						  If any living allowance remains subtract it from the parent's earned
						  income.
02.
Remaining Parental Income
The parent may have remaining income. Go to Subsection
						  453.03.
03.
Subtract Income Disregard
Subtract one (1) standard twenty dollar ($20) disregard
						  from the unearned income of the parents. If unearned income is less than twenty
						  dollars ($20) subtract the balance of the twenty dollars ($20) from the earned
						  income of the parents.
04.
Subtract Earned Income Disregard
Subtract one (1) sixty-five dollar ($65) earned income
						  disregard from the earned income of the parents.
Subtract one-half (1/2) of the remaining balance of the
						  earned income of the parents.
05.
Combine Income
Combine any remaining parental earned income with any
						  remaining parental unearned income.
06.
Compute Living Allowance for Parent
Compute a living allowance for the ineligible parent.
						  For one (1) parent, the living allowance is the basic allowance for a person
						  living alone.
For two (2) parents, the living allowance is the basic
						  allowance for a couple.
A parent receiving public income maintenance payments
						  does not get a living allowance.
07.
Subtract Living Allowance
Subtract the parent living allowance from the remaining
						  balance of the parent's income. This is the deemed parental income.
08.
Divide Deemed Income
If there is more than one (1) child participant in the
						  household, the deemed parental income is divided equally between those
						  children.
Each child's share of parental income must only reduce
						  the amount of his AABD cash to zero, when combined with the child's own
						  countable income.
Excess deemed parental income, remaining after a child
						  participant's AABD cash is reduced to zero, is divided equally between the
						  other child participants in the household. The excess deemed income is combined
						  with their share of the parental income available for deeming.
09.
Subtract Disregard
Subtract the standard twenty dollar ($20) disregard
						  from each child participant's unearned income, including deemed income. If a
						  child's total unearned income is less than twenty dollars ($20), subtract the
						  balance of the standard disregard from the child's earned income.
10.
Subtract Disregard
Subtract the sixty-five dollar ($65) earned income
						  disregard and one-half of the balance from each child's own earned
						  income.
11.
Combine Income
Combine each child's unearned income with his earned
						  income. If the child's remaining countable income is less than his actual
						  budgeted needs, the child has a budget deficit.
If the child is otherwise eligible, his AABD cash is
						  the budget deficit.
