e. Adding Children and Increasing Payments

With the exception of benefit increases that are due to a reduction in the family fee, changes that result in increased payments or payment eligibility for a new child shall take effect on the date the change is reported if the change is verified timely. If the change is not verified timely, the change shall take effect on the date the change is verified unless good cause exists for not providing timely verification pursuant to subsection (e) of section17b-749-06 of the Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies. The parent shall not be eligible for a supplemental payment to replace any benefits that would otherwise have been paid if the parent had submitted the verification timely.

Decreases in fees shall be implemented in accordance with the requirements of subsection (f) of section 17b-749-13 of the Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies.
