55 Pa. Code § 168.74. Determining weekly child care co-payment for the employed TANF budget group.

§ 168.74. Determining weekly child care co-payment for the employed TANF budget group.

The co-payment is determined weekly based upon gross monthly income and budget group size, using the co-payment sliding fee scale in Chapter 3041, Appendix B. Gross monthly income is determined based on anticipated or actual amounts as determined in accordance with Chapter 183 (relating to income).
   (1)  The co-payment is waived for the calendar month in which the first pay is received or until the date of discontinuance due to a prospective determination of ineligibility, in accordance with §  168.71 (relating to monthly payment determination). In the second month, the co-payment is determined using anticipated income, excluding the TANF grant as countable income.
   (2)  In the third month, the co-payment is determined using anticipated income and the TANF grant adjusted for earnings. This co-payment is used prospectively until the next redetermination, or the client requests a review of the co-payment amount, or there is a change in employment.
   (3)  If retroactive benefits are requested, the co-payment for each retroactive month will be determined using the actual income in the month of application.
