(2) Child support received;
(3) Supplemental security income (SSI);
(4) Social Security income;
(5) Refugee assistance payments;
(6) Payments from the Veterans' Administration, disability payments, or payments from labor and industries (L&I);

(10) Taxable gross wages from employment or self-employment;
(11) Corporate compensation received by or on behalf of the consumer, such as rent, living expenses, or transportation expenses;
(12) Lump sums as money a consumer receives from a one-time payment such as back child support, an inheritance, or gambling winnings; and
(13) Income for the sale of property as follows:
(a) If a consumer sold the property before application, DSHS considers the proceeds an asset and does not count as income;
(b) If a consumer sold the property in the month the consumer applies or during the consumer's eligibility period, DSHS counts it as a lump sum payment as described in WAC 110-15-0065(2);
(c) Property does not include small personal items such as furniture, clothes, and jewelry.
