DISCUSSION:

Effective immediately, the following income sources are added or the description is changed in FAMIS:

The current income code source AA- Allotment –Military or Spousal is updated to Allotment-Military and must only be used for military allotments. New FAMIS income source codes are added to the Income (FMX0) screen to use for Community Spouse, Dependent, and Minor Living Outside the home allotments due to the implementation of the Adult MO HealthNet programs in FAMIS. These allotments are considered unearned income, and are entered into FAMIS on the Income (FMX0) screen with a type code UI and appropriate source code. For cases where the AA code is currently being used for these types of allotments end date the AA income and re-enter using the appropriate code (A2, A3, or A4) at the next application, recertification, interim change or review. The new income source codes, descriptions, and when to use each income source code are included in the chart below:

Code Description  
A2 Community Spouse Allotment Enter this code when a Community Spouse is receiving an allotment from the Institutionalized Spouse.
A3 Minor/Dependent Allotment Enter this code when a minor or dependent living in the home with the community spouse receives an allotment from an institutionalized participant.
A4 Minor Living Outside the Household Allotment Enter this code when a minor not living with the community spouse receives an allotment from an institutionalized participant.

This income is included for all programs.

Income Maintenance Manual sections 0210.015.05, 0410.015.10, 0815.030.10.10, 0815.030.10.10.20, 0905.012.60.05, and 1115.010.00 are updated to reflect this change.  The FAMIS Income Code Chart pdf will be updated soon to reflect this change and other new income codes.
