- (a) We will mail a written notice of the initial determination to you at your last known address. Generally, we will not send a notice if your benefits are stopped because of your death, or if the initial determination is a redetermination that your eligibility for benefits and the amount of your benefits have not changed.
(b) The notice that we send will tell you—
- (1) What our initial determination is;
- (2) The reasons for our determination; and
- (3) What rights you have to a reconsideration of the determination.
- (c) If our initial determination is that we must suspend, reduce your SVB payments or terminate your SVB entitlement, the notice will also tell you that you have a right to a reconsideration before the determination takes effect (see § 408.820).
