CHANGES POSITIVELY IMPACTING THE PASS I FAMILY BENEFIT Changes reported warranting an increase in the units of care authorized become effective the month the change occurred when reported timely, within 10 (ten) business days, or effective when the family’s Temporary Assistance (TA) case is adjusted by the Division of Public Assistance (DPA). The WSP will submit a cancelation request of care already authorized and a Request for PASS I Child Care CC1 requesting an increased unit of care to be authorized when the family reports a change within ten (10) business days.
