Overview
Eligibility Reviews are an integral part of the case management process. They are designed to gather information that leads to the determination of a client’s continued eligibility.

With the significant increase in caseloads over the past several years, it is evident that we need to reconsider our requirements for Eligibility Reviews (“Reevaluations” in BEACON) to meet the demands of our current caseload dynamics.

Purpose
The purpose of this memo is to:

• remind staff of the minimum timeframe for onducting Eligibility Reviews for TAFDC and EAEDC cases;
• discuss the manner in which case managers may conduct Eligibility Reviews; and
• introduce the letter entitled Cash Appointment Letter Telephone Interview (Attachment A).
