Income should be counted the same whether the household is all citizen or non-citizen. As the regulation is written in Virginia, it discriminates against the household that is comprised of all citizens. That is not right nor fair. Other states do not subscribe to this thinking. If the household is over the gross limit for its size, it is ineligible for benefits - proration is not an option. That regulation should be changed.
