(b) the Minister of Employment and Social Solidarity confirms that during the 30-month period that precedes the first month of the individual’s period of transition to work that includes the eligible month, the individual received, for at least 24 months, an amount that isi. a last resort financial assistance benefit paid under Chapter I or II of Title II of the Individual and Family Assistance Act (chapter A-13.1.1) or under Chapter I of Title I of the Act respecting income support, employment assistance and social solidarity (chapter S-32.001), as that Act read before being replaced, or ii. a financial assistance benefit paid under Chapter V of Title II of the Individual and Family Assistance Act or Chapter III of that Title II, as it read before being repealed; and
(c) subject to the third paragraph, the Minister of Employment and Social Solidarity confirms that, for the first month of the individual’s period of transition to work that includes the eligible month, the individual holds, under subparagraph 1 or 3 of the first paragraph of section 48 of the Individual and Family Assistance Regulation (chapter A-13.1.1, r. 1), a valid claim booklet issued by the Minister of Employment and Social Solidarity.
For the purpose of confirming that an individual meets the condition set out in subparagraph b of the first paragraph, the Minister of Employment and Social Solidarity shall not consider that the individual received, for a particular month, a financial assistance benefit under Title II of the Individual and Family Assistance Act if(a) for that month, the individual was a dependent child for the purposes of the Individual and Family Assistance Act or of the Act respecting income support, employment assistance and social solidarity, as that Act read before being replaced; or
(b) for that month, the individual received only a special benefit under section 48 of the Individual and Family Assistance Regulation or under section 50 of the Regulation respecting income support made by Order in Council 1011-99 (1999, G.O. 2, 2881), as it read before being replaced.
