2. Timely Review
A. The household is considered to have met the requirements of a timely review if they:
(1) file the renewal form by the 15th day of the last month of the certification period,
(2) complete an interview, if required, by the end of the certification period, and
(3) submit necessary verifications by the later of ten calendar days of the request or the end of the certification period.
B. If the household meets the requirements of a timely review, the Department shall determine eligibility and notify the household of the Department’s determination by the end of the household's current certification period. The Department shall allow eligible households to continue their normal issuance cycle in the month following the end of their current certification period.
C. If, due to the time allowed for submitting requested verification, the Department is unable to determine a household’s eligibility in time for an eligible household to participate in their normal issuance cycle, the Department shall allow any eligible household to participate within five working days after the household submits the missing verification.
