In those instances where a recipient has received a relocation adjustment payment in excess of two hundred fifty dollars and has also been provided with similar assistance for moving expenses or other expenses directly related to relocation, under any public assistance program such recipient shall be required to transfer or assign to the Commissioner of Social Services an amount equal to the relocation assistance that had been received from the Commissioner of Social Services.
(b)Any payment made pursuant to section 47-88d to a recipient of public assistance shall not be considered income, earnings, assets or rent in the determination of eligibility for any public assistance program and shall not be deducted from the amount of assistance to which the recipient would otherwise be entitled.
