About this statute

This regulation sets who can apply for income assistance, what information must be provided, and when assistance can be granted, refused, reduced, or stopped. This provision sets when an officer must stop income assistance, when a formal warning can be used instead, how assistance decisions must be reviewed and explained, how income and assets are calculated, and when the director may recover or continue assistance. The provision allows assistance and benefits for eligible people in need, including emergency assistance, child care benefit, and payment of fees for a record suspension, subject to the Director’s direction and the stated eligibility conditions.
