Effective July 1, 2004, the non-spend down income maximum is 100% of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL) for both single individuals and married couples with eligibility based on AB criteria.

From July 1, 2004 through June 30, 2005, the non-spend down income maximum was 100% of the Federal Poverty Limit (FPL) for both single individuals and married couples based with eligibility based on OAA, PTD, or AB criteria.
