Establishing Overpayments

Once an overpayment is verified, determine the assistance program involved in the cash, medical or food assistance overpayment. Determine the amount of the overpayment using the following criteria: Reconstruct eligibility in cases where the client failed to report information or where reported information was not acted upon. Consider the change as it would have been considered if reported and acted upon timely.

If all criteria specified in WAC 388-410-0005 (3) (a)&(b) are met do not refer cases to Office of Financial Recovery.
