Women receiving FPW only are not required to report changes in income or household composition during the 12-month certification period. FPW recipients are still required to report all other changes within 10 days of the change.
Changes a woman reports in income or household composition that result in her income exceeding the FPW income limit will not affect her FPW benefits for the remainder of the 12-month certification period. The woman’s eligibility will be put into an extension phase (5.15.9) until the end of the 12-month certification period or until she reports an income decrease that is again below the FPW income limit.
Changes a woman reports in income or household composition that result in her income decreasing to the point where she would be eligible for full-benefit MA, may be applied. If the woman has a request for full-benefit MA on file, she will be found eligible for full-benefit MA. At that time, her FPW will end.
FPW eligibility terminates when a woman loses non-financial eligibility. Terminate eligibility, using adverse action logic, if the client:
Reaches the age of 45 years.
Moves out of state.
Is an adult no longer cooperating with TPL, MSL, or Social Security Number (SSN) requirements.
Begins receiving full-benefit MA (7.1.2).
