AN ACT EXEMPTING INCOME OF UP TO ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS EARNED BY A CHILD UNDER THE AGE OF TWENTY-FOUR FROM INCLUSION IN THE PARENT'S GROSS INCOME FOR DETERMINATION OF THE PARENT'S ELIGIBILITY TO PARTICIPATE IN THE RENTAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM.
PUBLIC HEARING 0224
Summary
The bill changes state law so that a parent’s gross income for the Rental Assistance Program does not include up to $100,000 earned by a child under 24 who lives with the parent. It applies to any household where a qualifying child’s earnings would otherwise push the parent above the program’s income limits. The change aims to make more families eligible for rental assistance by ignoring a child’s substantial earnings.
