IMPLEMENTING THE DECISION |
|
|
|
If the decision is in favor of the
appellant and benefits have not been continued, the benefits will be
reinstated and any lost benefits will be issued in accordance with the final
decision. If the case was closed, an
application is not necessary to reopen the case because of an appeal final
decision. If the final decision upholds the county’s action and the Families
First benefits have been continued, the AU’s benefits will be reduced
effective the first possible month after receipt of the decision. No advance notice is required to implement
a hearing decision. An overpayment
claim will be referred to COTS to recover any excess benefits that the AU
received pending the final decision of the hearing. |
