Diversion Appeals 400-19-145-55
(Revised 6/1/10 ML #3218)
Individuals have the right to appeal any adverse action regarding their Diversion Benefits. (See Section 400-19-125-10, Requesting a Fair Hearing – Other than JOBS Sanction for additional information.)
When an individual appeals an adverse action regarding their Diversion Benefit:
- If Diversion is denied or the case closed, benefits cannot be continued pending the hearing decision.
- If Diversion is reduced, benefits may only be continued based on the reduced level, pending the hearing decision.
- If Diversion has been paid for the maximum 4 months in the preceding 12-month period and notice to close has been sent, if the individual appeals the closure, benefits may not continue pending the fair hearing.
