income limits
Qualifying wage ceilings
Income limits are thresholds determining eligibility for programs, benefits, or housing based on how much someone earns.
Government assistance, subsidized housing, and tax credits often specify income limits: Households earning above the income limit don't qualify for the voucher program.
Limits may be set as dollar amounts or percentages of area median income.
