Section 468-2-015 - TRANSITIONAL GRANTAn Aid to Dependent Children unit may receive up to five transitional grants, each grant being equal to 1/5 of the Aid to Dependent Children payment standard for the unit's size at the time the unit becomes ineligible for an Aid to Dependent Children grant payment if:
(A) The unit lost eligibility for a grant because of increased earnings or increased hours of employment of the specified relative, guardian, or conservator;(B) The unit meets the requirements to qualify for Transitional Medical Assistance;(C) The unit must have lost eligibility for an Aid to Dependent Children grant in the month immediately preceding the first month of eligibility for the transitional grant. A month in which the unit was eligible but did not receive a grant due to the minimum payment provision does not qualify as a month of grant; the unit must have actually received an Aid to Dependent Children grant from Nebraska for the month immediately preceding ineligibility in order to receive transitional grants. 015.01CONTINUING TRANSITIONAL GRANT.
