§ 26.5-4-107 — Reconsideration and changes

(1) A county department shall
reconsider child care assistance awarded pursuant to this part 1 as frequently as
and in the manner required by department rules. After further verification and
record as the county department deems necessary or department rules may
require, the amount of child care assistance provided may be changed or
terminated, if the department or the county department finds that the recipient's
circumstances have altered sufficiently to warrant such action or if changes in
state or federal law have been made that would warrant such action. A county
department shall only require and collect any documentation that has changed
since the recipient's most recent application or redetermination process and that is
required to determine the recipient's continued eligibility.

(2) In accordance with department rules, a county department may terminate
child care assistance at any time for cause, or it may, for cause, suspend child care
assistance for such period as it may deem proper. Timely notice to persons who are
receiving child care assistance, but who are not eligible due to fraudulent acts, may
be given five days before the date of a proposed action, in accordance with federal
regulations.

(3) Whenever child care assistance is terminated, suspended, or in any way
changed, the county department shall at once report the decision to the recipient
and to the department, setting forth the reason for the action. All such decisions
are subject to review by the department in accordance with department rules.
