(a) When a full-day family is initially certified or recertified on the basis of income eligibility, the contractor shall:
- (1) Provide the parent a copy of the income calculation worksheet that verifies the family is income eligible;
- (2) Provide the parent with a copy of the most recent Schedule of Income Ceiling eligibility table, as published by the State Superintendent of Public Instruction; and
(3) Notify the parent in writing of the following:
- (A) The maximum adjusted monthly income, adjusted for family size, taking into account income fluctuations pursuant to section 17759, that the family could earn before the family would be disqualified for services, based on on-going eligibility requirements; and
- (B) The requirement to notify the contractor, within 30 calendar days, of any current and on-going income change that causes the family's adjusted monthly income, adjusted for family size, to exceed this maximum amount.
(b) Upon notification by the parent that they may have exceeded the maximum income threshold, the contractor shall utilize the process set forth in sections 17759 and 17762 to recalculate the family's adjusted monthly income, adjusted for family size, to determine if the family remains income eligible for continued services.
- (1) If the contractor determines, based on the provided documentation, that the family is still income eligible for services, the contractor shall inform the family in writing.
- (2) If the contractor concludes the family is no longer income eligible based upon the documentation provided by the parent or the parent fails to provide the documentation as requested by the contractor within 15 calendar days from the day of the parent's notification and the family does not establish another basis for eligibility based on documentation, the contractor shall issue a Notice of Action to disenroll the family pursuant to section 17783.
- (3) If the contractor concludes the family remains eligible for services based on documentation supporting another basis of eligibility, the contractor shall issue a Notice of Action approving services on the new basis for eligibility pursuant to section 17783.
