9091.6 Timely Processing

Provide uninterrupted benefits to any household determined eligible after the household has: 1. Timely filed an application, 2. Attended an interview, unless waived per DSSM 9030, and 3. Submitted all necessary verification within the ten (10) day timeframe. Notify households that were certified for one month or certified for two months in the second month of the certification period and have met all required application procedures of their eligibility or ineligibility. Provide eligible households an opportunity to receive benefits no later than 30 calendar days after the date the household received its last allotment. Other households that have met all application requirements shall be notified of their eligibility or ineligibility by the end of their current certification period. Provide households determined eligible an opportunity to participate by the household’s normal issuance cycle in the month following the end of its current certification period. Any household not determined eligible in sufficient time to provide for issuance in that timeframe due to the time period allowed for submitting any missing verification must receive an opportunity to participate, if eligible, within five (5) working days after the household supplies the missing verification.
