The cash contribution of a boarder is considered income if the contribution is for meals and non-shelter related expenses. If the payment includes shelter expenses, the portion stipulated for shelter is excluded from income if the amount is less than the assistance unit's monthly shelter obligation. The portion of the shelter expense contribution which exceeds the assistance unit's shelter obligation is counted as income to the assistance unit.
If the household offers board to people as a business, the provisions of § 67:10:03:12 apply.
For purposes of this rule, a boarder is an individual who pays a home owner a stipulated sum for regular meals or for meals and lodging.
