California Department of Social Services - State
Hearings Division
Notes from the Training Bureau - May 1, 2009
| Item 09-05-01A Paraphrased Regulations |
This version of the paraphrased regulations provides five additions and two revisions to the paraphrased regulations. There are also three deleted paraphrased regulations and there are additional corrections that are not substantive.
The major additions are as a result of changes in the federal stimulus package as set out in All County Letter 09-12. These changes have an impact on several food stamp rules such as the suspension of the ABAWD rule until October 2010 and disregarding the 13.6 percent increase in food stamps when computing food stamp overissuances,
CAPI payments will be reduced in May 2009 and again in July 2009 because of SSP cuts resulting from the state budget.
This is the final paraphrased regulation package that Pat Coony worked on prior to his retirement. The paraphrased regulations would not exist without Pat’s efforts, creativity and technical abilities. Pat was the driving force behind the creation of the computerized decision system and has remained responsible for its ongoing maintenance and improvement. These are an invaluable tool and we at the Training Bureau want to thank Pat for his tireless efforts. He will be missed.
