Rule 441-47.1 - Eligibility criteria

Eligibility for the promoting awareness of the benefits of a healthy marriage program is always determined in conjunction with determination of eligibility for SNAP under 441-Chapter 65.

(1)Application. There is no separate application for the program. Eligibility for the program is determined whenever the department determines a household's eligibility for SNAP.

(2)Resources. There is no asset test for the program.

(3)Income. The household's gross countable monthly income determined according to rule 441-65.29 (234) must be less than or equal to 160 percent of the current federal poverty guidelines for the household size. The income eligibility limits as described in this subrule are revised each October 1 to reflect the annual adjustment to the federal poverty guidelines.

(4)Otherwise eligible for SNAP. The household must meet all eligibility criteria for SNAP except as provided in this rule. A household that includes a member who is currently disqualified from SNAP due to an intentional program violation is not eligible for the program.

(5)Minimum SNAP benefit. The household must be eligible for a monthly SNAP benefit greater than zero. Households with a monthly SNAP benefit of zero are not eligible for the program.
