Authorizations for self-employment have different policies depending on whether the business has been in operation for more or less than 24 months.
If the self-employment business has been operating for 24 months or less, see Section 16.2.1.
If the self-employment business has been operating for more than 24 months, see Section 16.2.2.
Foster care parents, subsidized guardians, interim caretakers, relatives with court-ordered placement receiving the Kinship Care Payment, and individuals caring for children in tribal placement homes under a substantially similar Wisconsin tribal law are not subject to the minimum wage calculation policy in Section 16.2.2. For these parents who are self-employed, see Section 16.2.3.
