including those who are in the final month of student status. FS 63-406.23 - Determining Adequate/Available Child Care How do you determine adequate/available child are? In determining adequate childcare, the following factors shall be considered: • Accessibility of the childcare facility to the child’s home and school; • Convenience for the student household member and suitability of the hours of the child care with respect to the student’s school schedule; and • Appropriateness of the childcare services to the age and special needs of the child. FS 63-406.3 - Treatment of Income and Resources How are the income and resources of an ineligible student treated? A student who is ineligible based on the criteria in FS 63- 406.2 Eligibility Requirements is an excluded household member. The income and resources of an ineligible student living with a household are not considered in determining the eligibility and benefit level of the remaining household. Case contributions and payments from the ineligible student to the household are income to that household. Reference FS 63-503.4 Households with Special Circumstances for treatment of income and expenses shared by the eligible household and excluded ineligible student. Student Financial Aid Reference FS 63-502.2 Income Exclusions for the treatment of funds received by eligible students as educational loans, grants, scholarships, etc. See Income – Student for details FS 63-406.4 - Eligibility Determination/Documentation How is eligibility/ineligibility determined and documented for students? The eligibility/ineligibility of each student aged 18 but not yet 50, enrolled in an institution of higher education, shall be determined and documented on the PA 136, Student Eligibility Worksheet. A PA 136 shall be completed at the time of initial application and at each recertification for any household containing a student between 18 and 49. It shall also be completed during the certification period whenever a student is being added or a certified household member becomes a student.
A separate worksheet is completed for each student. The completed worksheet constitutes case documentation that the student rules have been applied. The PA 135, Student Eligibility Decision Table may be used as a guide in determining student eligibility/ineligibility. FS 63-407 - WORK REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS FS 63-407.1 - Persons Required to Register FS 63-407.11 - Input of Food Stamp Employment or Training Program (FSET) Control Code Who must register for work? All Food Stamp recipients between 16 and 60 years of age must be registered for work and comply with Food Stamp Work Registration (WR) requirements unless they meet one of the criteria for exemption/deferral listed in FS 63-407.2 Work Registration Exemptions and Deferrals. When is a FSET control code used? A FSET control code is mandatory for each Food Stamp work registrant. An FSET control code is not needed for persons who are exempt from WR as specified in FS 63-407.2 Work Registration Exemptions and Deferrals. Approvals At the Food Stamp approval an FSET control code is needed for each mandatory work registrant in the household. It is not to be input on pending or denied applications. Recertification Reviews If an individual is no longer a mandatory work registrant (i.e., becomes exempt as specified in FS 63-407.2 Work Registration Exemptions and Deferrals), the FSET control code is not necessary. If, during a certification period an individual has a change that affects his/her work registration status (e.g., found employment), the EW must evaluate the individual’s work registration status. Changes During Certification Period If an individual is exempt from WR, the EW shall document in the in the Case Comments screen in LEADER. NOTE: Refugees and CalWORKs State-U individuals who are work registered at the CIU or EDD as required by the case aid program are considered “deferred” from Food Stamp WR because they are work
