Some post-FNS clarification on establishment and collection of CalFresh overissuances. To determine whether an overissuance is cost-effective to collect, the thresholds is determined based on the amount as of the date the overissuance is calculated. Counties are to terminate any collections for OI’s that were above $35 when established. (SB 1391 raises the cost effectiveness threshold to above $125, but only for households no longer on CalFresh. If the OI is discovered and established, but before collection can start the family will no longer be on CalFresh, and the OI is 125 or less, no collection would occur. [Download]
