60. How much income can I have and still get EAEDC?

There are three steps in determining your grant.                                                        

  • How much countable income do you have? The EAEDC rules look at gross income minus certain limited deductions for earned income.
  • How big is your household? The EAEDC grant varies by household size.
  • What is your living arrangement? The EAEDC rules have eight different budgets depending on whom you live with and where you live.
