Wash. Admin. Code § 388-464-0001 - Am I required to cooperate with quality control?
(1) To be eligible for basic food assistance,
transitional food assistance (TFA), or the Washington combined application
project (WASHCAP), all household members must cooperate in the quality control
(QC) review process.
(2) If
someone who must cooperate under subsection (1) of this section refuses to
cooperate, your assistance unit (AU) is in eligible for benefits from the date
QC has determined that you are refusing to cooperate until the person meets QC
requirements or 125 days from the end of the annual QC review period.
(3) If a person leaves a basic food AU that
is currently disqualified for refusing to cooperate in the QC review process,
the penalty for refusal to cooperate follows that person and continues for the
AU that includes the person(s) who refused to cooperate. If we cannot determine
which person refused to cooperate, the penalty continues for the AU that
includes the head of household at the time QC found your AU refused to
cooperate.
(4) The QC review period
covers the federal fiscal year, which runs from October 1st of one calendar
year through September 30th of the following calendar year.
(5) People applying for basic food after the
penalty period in subsection (2) of this section has ended must provide
verification of all eligibility requirements. However, if your AU is eligible
for expedited service under WAC
388-406-0015, you only need to
provide expedited service required verifications.
