Kan. Admin. Regs. § 129-6-88 - Disabled individuals with earned income; determined eligibles
(a) Each applicant
and each recipient shall meet the general eligibility requirements of K.A.R.
129-6-50 and the following specific eligibility requirements:
(1) Each individual shall be at least 16
years old but less than 65 years old.
(2) Each individual shall meet the blindness
or disability requirements of K.A.R. 129-6-85.
(3) Each individual shall have earned income
that is subject to federal insurance contributions act (FICA) taxes.
(b) Financial eligibility shall be
based on a percentage of the official federal poverty-level income guidelines
as specified in K.A.R. 129-6-103(a)(11), which shall be used as the income
standard for the number of persons in the assistance plan and any other persons
whose income is considered. Monthly applicable income to be considered in the
eligibility base period shall be compared against the poverty level for the
base period. For an individual to be eligible under this regulation, the
monthly applicable income shall not exceed the poverty level established for
the base period. If the individual also owns nonexempt real or personal
property with a resource value in excess of $15,000, which shall include any
nonexempt resources of all family group members, that individual shall not be
eligible under this regulation.
(c)
For each individual whose monthly applicable income is at least 226 percent but
not greater than 300 percent of the official federal poverty-level income
guidelines for the applicable family size, a monthly premium amount shall be
assessed. This premium amount shall not exceed 7.5 percent of the monthly
applicable income based on the official federal poverty-level income indicated
for the applicable family size. Failure to pay the premium shall result in
ineligibility.
(d) Each individual
who is temporarily unemployed but intends to return to work shall continue to
be eligible for coverage for not more than four months if all other eligibility
factors are met.
