1. Determine the ending date of assistance on the basis of the reason for ineligibility.

2. Note that the ending date is always the end of a month.

3. Use these rules in computing overpayments (see 7000 Benefit Error).

4. Remember that excess income and asset cases which require a retroactive ending date will generate overpayments.

5. Do not confuse "ending date of assistance" which refers to eligibility for benefits with "discontinuance date" which is the date action is taken.
