(a) The CWA shall provide households that have filed an application by the 15th of the last month of their certification period with either a notice of eligibility or a notice of denial by the end of the current certification period. The CWA shall provide households that have received a notice of expiration at the time of certification and have timely reapplied, with either a notice of eligibility or a notice of denial not later than 30 days after the date the household had an opportunity to obtain its last allotment.

(b) If an application is denied, the CWA shall provide the household with written notice explaining the basis for the denial. This requirement shall be accomplished by use of the "Adverse Action Notice". The notice shall be sent as soon as possible, but not later than 30 days following the date the application was filed.

(c) If, by the 30th day, the CWA cannot take any further action on the application due to the fault of the household, the household shall lose its entitlement to benefits for the month of application. The CWA shall follow the procedures at 10:87-2.27(e).
