In-Home Health-Related Care (IHHRC) Home Maintenance Allowance - Iowa

When calculating client participation for IHHRC, the amount of the basic Supplemental Security Income (SSI) income standard – the SSI Federal Benefit Rate (FBR) – for an individual, a couple, or a dependent (minus the dependent's countable income) is deducted from the recipient’s income for home maintenance costs.

These amounts are used as the home maintenance allowance both when the recipient receives an SSI payment and when the recipient’s income exceeds SSI standards.

The dependent’s income is subtracted from the additional home maintenance allowance for a dependent maximum.

When a married couple lives together, the couple allowance is deducted even if only one spouse receives in-home health-related care.
