Special consideration of income for destitute households is listed below. The rules for destitute households apply at initial application, a six-month or twelve-month contact, and recertification, but only for the first month of each contact or certification period.
01.Travel Advances. For destitute eligibility and benefit level, travel advances: a. Rom employers for travel costs to a new employment location are excluded.b. Against future wages are counted as income, but not a new source of income.02.Household Member Changes Job. A person changing jobs with the same employer is still getting income from the same source. A migrant's income source is the grower, not the crew chief. When a migrant moves with a crew chief from one (1) grower to another, the income from the first grower is ended. The income from the next grower is new income.03.Recertification or Six-Month or Twelve-Month Contact. The Department will disregard income from the new source for the first month of the new certification period if more than twenty-five dollars ($25) will not be received by the tenth calendar day after the normal issuance.Idaho Admin.
