My husband and I were recently out of work. I am currently collecting unemployment and my husband just went back to work. We updated our information with the state and my oldest 2 children (different father) are still receivng medicaid however my youngest two children were cut off. When I spoke with my case worker he informed me that because my youngest two children's father is in the house they have to include all of our income for the youngest two, but only mine for the oldest two. This does not make sense to me. We have been married for 12 yrs the oldest children father does not pay support. In a sense they are counting my unemployment twice once for my oldest and then again for my youngest. Shouldn't they at least be using half my income for both scenarios? It is my husband's income that supports all of us.
