OLGT 2024-8: Cross Programs: TAFDC and SNAP 2024 Federal Poverty Guidelines

Each year, updates to the Federal Poverty Guidelines (FPG) are published in
the Federal Register by the Department of Health and Human Services
(HHS). Once the FPGs are published, BEACON is programmed to use new
eligibility standards when calculating income eligibility for TAFDC parents
under age 18 living with a parent, the gross monthly income test for
clients for the 100% Earned Income Disregard, and categorically eligible
SNAP households.

The applicable TAFDC and SNAP program eligibility charts and tables are
posted on the following websites:
