Eligibility Policy - 9/1/2024
5213 Intermittent Unearned Income - Intermittent unearned income is received on other than a monthly basis such as quarterly, semiannually, or annually. It must be considered and averaged. See 6113. Intermittent unearned income received prior to the first eligibility period shall not be considered. The case record shall clearly indicate that the income is being treated as "intermittent" unearned income.
NOTE: An additional benefit check is provided on an annual basis to retired members of the Kansas Public Employer's Retirement System (KPERS) who began receiving a benefit prior to July 2, 1987. This 13th check is generally identical in amount to the monthly benefit. This check is to be treated as intermittent income and budgeted over the entire year by dividing by 12.
