Coverage under section 1931 of the Act was not repealed with the ACA and will remain in effect in 2014. As noted in the table above, eligibility for parents and caretaker relatives under section 1931 is implemented at section 435.110 of the regulations; eligibility for pregnant women under section 1931 is implemented at section 435.116 and eligibility for children at section 435.118. TMA under section 1925 of the Act will sunset on December 31, 2012, unless extended by Congress. If Congress elects to extend section 1925 of the Act beyond December 31, 2013, States will need to provide TMA to eligible individuals as set forth in their approved State plans. Note that the 4-month extension for individuals losing eligibility under section 1931 of the Act due to increased earnings or hours of work (see sections 1902(e)(1)(A) and 1931(c)(2) of the Act), and the 4-month extension of eligibility for individuals losing eligibility due to increased spousal support (see section 1931(c)(1) of the Act) do not have a sunset date and would therefore still apply in 2014 unless repealed by Congress. The extension of eligibility for individuals losing coverage under section 1931 due to increased child support will no longer be relevant in 2014, as child support is not counted as income under MAGI-based methodologies.
