Or. Admin. R. 461-160-0140 - How Income and Resources are Used to Determine Eligibility and Benefit for EA
The Department considers a client's income and resources in determining eligibility and benefit level for EA as follows:
(1) The financial group's countable income is
compared to the TANF adjusted income payment standard for the benefit group. If
countable income equals or exceeds the standard, the benefit group is not
eligible.
(2) If countable income
is less than the standard and the financial group meets all other EA
eligibility requirements, the client is required to use all income and
resources that are immediately available to meet the emergent need. The EA
benefit is calculated by subtracting all income and resources that are
immediately available to the client from the amount needed to meet the emergent
need. The remainder is the benefit, not to exceed the limit in OAR
461-155-0070.
