Under this section, self-employment will be considered the same as a job component, if the individual's income, divided by the minimum wage, equals at a minimum twenty (20) hours per week. To receive the self-employment exemption outlined in this part, low-income entrepreneurs must be enrolled in the job component of the temporary assistance for needy families (TANF) or successor program, and must be enrolled in a micro-lending program providing entrepreneurship training, technical assistance and peer support.
