Great news for Connecticut seniors and people with
disabilities! ConnPACE income eligibility levels increased as of January 1,
2009.
For single people, the income limit for 2009 is $25,100. For couples, the
income limit is now $33,800.
The income that counts toward ConnPACE eligibility includes adjusted gross
income, plus Social Security. If you pay Medicare Part B premiums, they are
deducted from the income amount.
The increase in ConnPACE income eligibility levels will allow for more
seniors and people with disabilities to benefit from the program.

If you are applying in the 2009 calendar year, you can
use your 2008 income or provide an estimate of your 2009 income. These
income levels must be shown with either a tax return, or copies of sources
of income.
