PM 10-02-02-b: IPE

WAG 10-02-02-b

The IPE period begins with the 30th day following the date of application. The IPE period continues through the day before the first day of the first Regular Roll (ongoing benefit) month.

When determining eligibility for an IPE, budget only the income that will actually be received during the New Manual Materialpartial month of the IPE period and income average for any full month of the IPE period. Allow the 3/4 earned income deduction on all earned income. Deduct the nonexempt countable income against the prorated payment level amount for the number of days in the IPE period.

Regardless of whether or not the customer is eligible for an IPE, determine eligibility for the first regular roll month.
