935 GROSS MONTHLY INCOME LIMITS SR 17-12, 07/17 (FAM-A)

*The NH Child Care Scholarship program has two-tiered eligibility. Tier 1 is for initial eligibility and Tier 2 is for Graduated Phase Out (GPO), a one 12 month period of time after which Child Care Scholarship will end. GPO allows families time to transition toward financial independence and self-sufficiency.

Families who require Child Care Scholarship and who are either receiving financial assistance from DHHS under the Financial Assistance to Needy Families (FANF) program or whose gross monthly income is at or below 220% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines (FPG) will enter the NH Child Care Scholarship program in Tier 1. Initial eligibility can only be determined in Tier 1.

An exit threshold known as Graduated Phase Out (GPO), Tier 2, applies to families at redetermination when gross monthly income is greater than 220% but less than or equal to 250% of FPG.

A family’s step level is determined by the gross monthly income and the family size.
