OLGT 2019-67: SNAP: Income Averaging

Existing Bay State CAP clients who are known to have fluctuating employment related pensions income are no longer eligible to be on Bay State CAP reporting. These households, once identified, will be removed from Bay State CAP. Income averaging is applicable to households with SSI and fluctuating employment related pensions, regardless of their current certification type. The Department will default to income averaging for households with both SSI and a fluctuating employment related pension. A new checkbox, Mandatory Averaging, has been added to the Other Income Status page in BEACON.
