12VAC30-110-1100. Individuals and families with income below the MNIL.
Cases which have only regular income that is below the MNIL do not have to spenddown to become income eligible. Such cases shall be maintained in the same manner as categorically needy cases; however, effective the month that income exceeds the MNIL or the first month following the timely notification period, the case must be treated as all other spenddown cases. When a monthly budget period is used, increases in income shall be counted beginning the month the change occurs, unless a Medicaid card has already been issued for that month and a change in circumstances occurs too late in the month to provide "timely" notice under 42 CFR 435.919 prior to suspending Medicaid benefits.
