6.2 Reporting Changes
Families must report the following changes to their eligibility worker. These changes will not affect a child’s eligibility for care, but must still be reported according to the timelines below: • Families are required to report any changes in telephone number, email address, or mailing address within 10 calendar days of the change. • Families must report if a child changes child development facilities or no longer attends a child development facility within three calendar days of the child’s last day at the most recent facility. • Families must report any changes in guardianship of the child(ren) within three calendar days. Families must report to their eligibility worker the following changes in their status of eligibility within 10 calendar days. These changes may result in a termination: • Any change in residency outside of DC; • A non-temporary change, as defined in Section 6.3.1; or • An increase in income such that the family’s income exceeds 85 percent of the SMI for a family of the same size for more than 90 calendar days. If eligibility is affected, the family will receive written notice of termination. A child may continue to receive the subsidy for 90 calendar days from the date a termination notice is issued. If an eligibility review is conducted during the 12-month eligibility period and the child is found to still be eligible for services, the next redetermination date will be pushed forward an additional 12 months.
