When a household reports that an individual has left, the individual must be removed.

 

If removing the individual results in an increase in benefits, client statement is acceptable verification, unless questionable. The worker must process the change timely.

 

If removing the individual results in a decrease in benefits, a 10-day advance notice is needed unless the change is reported in writing and signed by the household. If the worker does not have 10-days for the 10-day advance notice, the individual is not removed for the next benefit month, but must be removed for the month following the expiration of the 10-day advance notice.
