ACIN I-67-11: Termination Of The County Requirement To Establish SSI Advocacy Programs For CAPI Recipients (9/30/11)

Passing on a change that happened 4 months ago.  As of July 1st, 2011, counties with 70 or more CAPI cases are no longer required to have advocacy programs to get folks onto SSI.  For the counties that choose to continue these programs after July 1, 2011, CDSS will reimburse those counties for admin costs through June 30, 2012, except for attorney or authorized representative fees.  Those fees will be reimbursed through the close of the first quarter of the current fiscal year which ends September 30, 2011. No further reimbursements for attorney or authorized
representative fees will be made after this date.  [Download]
