In addition to categorical and general requirements, an assistance group must meet financial eligibility requirements in order to receive assistance. Financial requirements are broken into two components:
• income, and
• resources. See Chapter400, Resources.
An assistance group which meets the income requirements is income-eligible. An assistance group which meets the resource requirements is resource-eligible. An assistance group which meets both income and resource requirements is financially eligible. Chapter400, Resources, explains the resource limits. Chapter600, Standards and Budgets, explains income limits and budgeting procedures for the various programs and coverage groups.
