PM 04-02-01-a: Spenddown Unit with a Child with Income

WAG 04-02-01-a.

Set up separate cases if a unit has a spenddown, the spenddown includes excess income, and a child in the unit has countable income.

Example: Ms. C has one child. Ms. C receives UIB and her child receives child support of more than $50. Both persons are applying for medical benefits and their countable income is above the FamilyCare Assist Standard for 2.

Since they have a spenddown because of excess income, and a child has countable income, set up separate cases; one for Ms. C and one for her child.
