Wash. Admin. Code § 388-470-0060 - How does the department decide how much of my sponsor's resources affect my eligibility for cash and food assistance benefits?
(1) If you are a sponsored immigrant as
defined in WAC
388-450-0155, and you are not
exempt from deeming under WAC
388-450-0156, we count part of
your sponsor's resources as available to you.
(2) We decide the amount of your sponsor's
resources to count by:
(a) Totaling the
countable resources of the sponsor and the sponsor's spouse (if the spouse
signed the affidavit of support) under chapter 388-470 WAC;
(b) Subtracting fifteen hundred dollars;
and
(c) Counting the remaining
amount as a resource that is available to you.
(3) If you can show that your sponsor has
sponsored other people as well, we divide the result by the total number of
people who they sponsored.
(4) We
continue to count your sponsor's resources when we determine your eligibility
for benefits until you are exempt from deeming under WAC
388-450-0156.
