Item 07-11-01A
Paraphrased Regulations

This version of the paraphrased regulations provides two additions and five revisions to paraphrased regulations. There are also two deleted paraphrased regulations. Four pararegs have been renumbered.

The changes incorporate the annual cost-of-living changes effective in the food stamp program each October. Regulations have also been edited to eliminate excess and outdated verbiage. Additional changes reflect the changes in treatment of the $50 child support disregard, the earnings of a child between 18 and 19 years of age, and college work study.

Please note that both 260-3 and 260-3C have been edited to eliminate the explanation of the standard deductions for different household sizes and years; the basic computations reflect the current $134 for small households only. A new paraphrased regulation, 260-3D, has been added that includes all the language previously included in the computation. Prior pararegs 260-3D through 260-3G have been moved to 260-3E through 260-3H.

Pararegs 264-7A and 264-7B, dealing with converting income to monthly amounts, have been eliminated as they duplicate 265-8 and 265-8A.

The following is the list of updates:
