10:15-3.4 Hearings and notices

(a) WFNJ/TANF applicants and participants are entitled to hearings and notices under provisions at N.J.A.C. 10:90-9 on issues concerning the appropriateness of, denial of, prompt issuance of, or intended actions to discontinue, terminate, suspend or reduce WFNJ/TANF child care benefits. (b) Changes in the manner of payment are not subject to timely notice requirements unless they result in a discontinuation, suspension, reduction or termination of benefits, or they force a change in child care arrangements. (c) If the individual has been receiving WFNJ child care benefits and is awaiting a hearing concerning those benefits because such benefits were reduced, he or she is not entitled to receive WFNJ child care benefits at the prior unreduced level. Benefits shall continue at the determined reduced level pending the hearing. If the individual had not been receiving any child care benefits and is awaiting a hearing due to nonreceipt of child care benefits, he or she is not entitled to receive any WFNJ child care benefits pending the hearing.
