They will be provided to individuals who meet one of the following eligibility criteria:

· FIP recipients who no longer receive a cash payment due to loss or reduction of earned income disregards or increased earnings

· FIP recipients who formerly received a cash payment and who were employed at the time their case was closed

· FIP recipients who formerly received a cash payment and whose cash payments were terminated due to the 24 month time limit expiration, who become employed and (a) requested assistance within 24 months from FIP case closure and (b) whose income did not exceed 125% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines

Eligibility will cease if any of the following occurs:
