VERIFICATION 8.6 Requirements 8.6.1 MA AR/AX D.C. Healthy Families Application Users: Only verification of gross income and out-of-pocket dependent care expenses is required. AR/AX Combined Application Users: Verify income prior to authorizing benefits at application, at redetermination, and whenever a change affecting income occurs. Verify all countable earned and unearned income. Verify disabled applicant's claim that s/he receives no disability benefits. The last known employer is a suggested contact. Any income change must be verified when reported. Document excluded income in the case record. Verification is not normally required because excluded income does not affect eligibility. The SSR may request it if there is not enough information to determine whether the income can be excluded. The SSR must verify income that is only partially excluded or when the amount affects allowable expenses.
