income threshold
Money level limit
An income threshold is a specific dollar amount that determines eligibility or triggers a change in status.
Government programs use income thresholds to decide who qualifies for benefits: Households earning below the income threshold qualify for subsidized housing.
Tax brackets, financial aid, and means-tested programs all rely on income thresholds as cutoff points.
