FAIM - Income Disregards

There are two types of income disregards recognized in the Families Achieving Independence in Montana (FAIM) program - earned and obligated. Earned income disregards are subtracted from the earnings of each wage earner in the family. The earned income disregards are:

·      $200 work expense ($100 for Community Services Program participants);

·      Twenty-five percent (25%) of the balance, except for Community Services participants; and

·      A maximum of $200 per month per child for child care expenses.

The obligated disregard is the amount of legally-binding child support payments expected to be paid for dependents not living with the family, and is allowable only if payments are being made on a regular basis. It is subtracted from the balance of countable earned and unearned income.
