Summary

Backdates federal TANF earned and unearned income source parameters from 2020-01-01 to 2010-07-01, aligning with other federal TANF cash parameters in the age_limit/ folder.

Closes #7504

Changes

  • earned.yaml: 2020-01-01 → 2010-07-01
  • unearned.yaml: 2020-01-01 → 2010-07-01

No values changed — only the effective date.

Justification

The earned/unearned income categorizations (wages/self-employment as earned; benefits, investment income, support payments as unearned) have been stable across all federal means-tested programs since the SSI definitions (1974+). TANF delegates income definitions to states; these lists serve as a conventional baseline.

Test plan

  • Existing tests pass (no value changes)
  • State TANF implementations that depend on federal variables unaffected
