Examples

1) Income Garnished but the full amount is counted

The customer does not get their full Social Security payment in the amount of $1,200 per month because an overpayment is being recovered in the amount of $121.00 monthly. At the time of the overpayment, the customer was not receiving AHCCCS benefits. The customer’s full gross amount of $1,200.00 is countable income.

2) Income Garnished and the garnished amount is excluded

The customer is entitled to a full monthly Social Security payment in the amount of $1,600.00. The customer only gets $1,360.00 per month because an overpayment of $240.00 is being recovered monthly. The customer was receiving AHCCCS benefits during the overpayment. The overpayment was factored into eligibility determinations during that period. The $240.00 is excluded from the customer’s countable income.
