Use the income reported with the redetermination (REDE) submitted via: Medical, Cash and SNAP Redetermination Application (IL444-1893), Manage My Case (MMC), or over the phone with an electronic signature to prospectively determine eligibility and benefit amount for the new 12-month period, unless the customer anticipates a change. If a change is reported and proof is not available, use the customer's statement of what the income will be. The estimate may be based on the person's statement such as, but not limited to, rate of pay, hours of work, and number of expected paychecks. Document the method used to project the future income.
The income reported at
redetermination is the income from the last 30 days. If the pay verification used to determine the budget for the new 12-month period is not from the last 30 days, document what verification was used to figure best estimate and why.
