263.23—How does a State prevent a recipient from using the IDA account for unqualified purposes?

To prevent recipients from using the IDA account improperly, States may do the following:

(b) Count withdrawals as resources in determining eligibility; or
(c) Take such other steps as the State has established in its State plan or written State policies to deter inappropriate use.
