Worker Responsibilities - WAC 388-406-0065

Reconsidering a Denied Application Applications may only be reconsidered for two reasons:

The applicant has provided missing verification after denial for lack of verification (Reason Code 552).

The worker made an error at the time of denial. If the household's circumstances have changed, a new application is required.

If the applicant provides only part of the information we need per the timelines in WAC 388-406-0065 (1), take the following actions:

Review the case to see if we can determine eligibility for each program based on what we have received; and

Send the applicant a letter advising of our reconsideration decision for each program. This includes: An approval letter if we can determine they're eligible; A new denial letter if we are able to determine they're ineligible; or A second denial letter indicating the original denial reason and effective date stands and why.
