Purpose of the Proposal and Its Anticipated Effects, Including Any Changes in Existing Rules: The proposed amendments are needed to clarify when the department can allow clients more time to provide information needed to determine eligibility for benefits. The proposed rules changes would allow more time to send in proof of income and other documents when clients are cooperating with the application process rules. These changes will improve consistency between these and other related rules.
Reasons Supporting Proposal: The rule changes will clarify when the department can allow clients more time to provide information needed to determine eligibility for benefits.
