A subsequent Intentional Program Violation (IPV) cannot be brought against an individual unless the violation took place after the date of the Executive Director’s Findings and Order in the previous action.

 

Example:

If a decision for a first violation is dated May 17, but the second violation concerns unreported income for the month of December in the prior year, a second violation cannot be imposed because it took place prior to the decision in the first violation.

 

An IPV can be pursued if it involves two separate individuals and two separate violations, no matter when the violations occurred.

 

Example:

A decision for a violation is dated May 17 for the husband who is a household member. A second violation occurs due to unreported income for the month of December in the prior year for the wife. IPV can be pursued against the wife.
