Initial and continuing eligibility for assistance payments is based on factual statements submitted by the assistance unit. Verification through personal contacts or home visits is required for living arrangements, family composition, school enrollment, resources, and all income. Initial or continued eligibility may also depend on a professional or administrative determination of incapacity and whether training, employment, or cooperation with the Office of Child Support Enforcement was refused for good cause. The department shall also maintain a quality control system to sample completed initial and continuing eligibility determinations to verify client information, review agency actions, and ensure conformity with the state plan.
