10 CCR 2506-1-4.610 - REINSTATEMENT OF BENEFITS
A household may be eligible for a reinstatement of benefits, without filing a new application, during the remaining month(s) of the certification period if the reason for the original closure has been resolved and eligibility may be reestablished.
The local office may reinstate the household if the household reports and verifies a reported change in circumstances that reestablishes the household's eligibility within 30 calendar days following the date of ineligibility. Within standard processing timeframes, the local office will review the case to determine if the household continues to meet all other eligibility requirements.
If eligible for reinstatement, the local office will prorate SNAP benefits from the date the household took all required action(s) to reestablish eligibility.
If the certification period has already ended or will end during the month the household is attempting to reestablish eligibility, a new application is needed.
