Section 17-647-46 - Certification periods(a) Households that are certified on an expedited basis shall be assigned a normal certification period. If verification is postponed, the branch shall issue these household's benefits only for the month of application.(b) When verification is postponed, the branch shall notify the household in writing that no further benefits will be issued until the postponed verification is completed. The notice shall also advise the household that if verification results in changes in the household's eligibility or level of benefits, the branch shall act on those changes without advance notice of adverse action. When these households provide the postponed verification, the branch shall issue the second month's benefits within five working days from receipt of the verification or the first working day of the second calendar month, whichever is later. When the postponed verification is not completed within thirty days of the date of application, the branch shall terminate the household's participation and shall issue no further benefits.(c) If a household who was terminated for failure to submit the postponed verification subsequently reapplies for assistance, the household shall not be eligible for expedited processing, even if the household meets the expedited criteria as stated in section 17-647-42, until the household provides the required verification of any previously postponed verification that have not been verified, which are still applicable to the household. Once the postponed verification is verified, the branch shall process the application within the five calendar days expedited processing standard as specified in section 17-647-44 starting from the date the previously postponed verification is verified. The applicant household, if eligible for assistance, shall be certified in accordance with subsection (a).[Eff 3/19/93; am 12/18/95] (Auth: HRS § 346-14) (Imp: 7 C.F.R. §273.2(i) (4) )
