ANTICIPATING INCOME |
|
|
|
At the time of application/reapplication an
AU may expect changes in circumstances to occur in the future; in particular,
changes relating to the receipt of income.
However, only currently available income will be used to project the
amount of ongoing available income unless the amount and date of receipt of
expected income is known with reasonable certainty or unless some change has
occurred. If the exact amount/month of
receipt of the income is not known, only that portion of it which can be
reasonably anticipated shall be considered as income. When any change in AU circumstances is expected, including a change in
income, the AU will be required to report the change within 10 days of the
change. |
