Rule 18-14-30.4 - Anticipating IncomeA. MDHS will count the income already received by the household and income that is reasonably anticipated to be received during the remainder of the certification period.B. Anticipated income will only be counted if there is reasonable certainty regarding the month in which the payment will be received and in what amount.C. If the receipt of income is reasonably certain, but the monthly amount may vary, the household may elect to income average.D. Income received during the past 30 days will be used to indicate income that will be available to the household during the certification period unless income fluctuates.E. If income fluctuates to the degree that a 30 day time period alone will not provide an accurate representation of anticipated income, then the household may use a longer period of time to provide a more accurate indication of anticipated fluctuations in future income.F. If the income fluctuates seasonally, then it could be appropriate to use the most recent season comparable to the certification period rather than the last 30 days.18 Miss. Code. R. 14-30.4
