Requirements

The earned income deduction is not allowable for earnings not reported timely.

Basic Considerations

If an AU does not report the receipt of earned income timely, do not allow the 20% earned income deduction for that income when computing the amount of the overpayment (OP).

Procedures

Determine the months of overpayments by applying the appropriate reporting requirement. Gross income changes of over 130% of the applicable FPL must be reported no later than 10 days following the end of the month in which the income exceeded the SRR reporting requirement. Apply the 10-14 periods for taking actions following the end of that period for SRR AUs.
