At the time of application and renewal, individuals will be informed that they are responsible for notifying the agency about changes in circumstances that may affect eligibility. Changes may be reported via the ASSIST Self Service website, by telephone, via mail, in person, and through other commonly available electronic means. Eligibility will be redetermined promptly between regularly scheduled renewals when information about a change in circumstance may affect eligibility unless the member is in a continuous eligibility period. See Section 14810.1 How Changes in Circumstances affect Continuous Eligibility.
If the agency has information about anticipated changes in a beneficiary's circumstances that may affect their eligibility, the agency will redetermine eligibility at the appropriate time based on such changes.
Failure to report changes that may affect eligibility may result in an overpayment being filed or legal action taken to recover funds expended during periods of ineligibility.
