A CCAP agency must allow a 12-month reporter 15 calendar days to return a verification to the CCAP agency. If the CCAP agency does not receive verification of the permanent end of an authorized activity and the 12-month reporter has no other authorized activity, a CCAP agency must place the 12-month reporter in extended eligibility according to part 3400.0175 on the date that the CCAP agency becomes aware of the permanent end of the authorized activity.

A CCAP agency must allow a schedule reporter 15 calendar days to return a verification to the CCAP agency. If the CCAP agency does not receive a verification, the CCAP agency must terminate the schedule reporter's child care authorization with a 15-day adverse action notice and suspend the schedule reporter's eligibility until the CCAP agency receives verification that allows the CCAP agency to authorize child care.

An employed person who is eligible for child care assistance under part 3400.0080 is exempt from this requirement if the person's work is an authorized activity in an approved employment plan that allows fewer work hours or a lower wage.

B.

A CCAP agency and an applicant or participant must determine a length of time, not to exceed the most recent six months, over which the number of hours that an employed person works weekly is averaged and counted toward the applicant or participant meeting the average of 20 hours per week requirement.

D.

If a family who is eligible for child care assistance under part 3400.0060 or 3400.0090 had an approved education plan with a CCAP agency and the family begins receiving services from another CCAP agency, the education plan remains in effect until the family's next redetermination or until the family requests a change. When another CCAP agency redetermines the family's eligibility at redetermination, the student's education plan is subject to the CCAP agency's approval, rejection, or modification.

Subp. 15.

Changes in education or training programs.

A proposed change in an education or training program for a participant who is eligible for child care assistance under parts 3400.0060 and 3400.0090 is subject to CCAP agency approval before the participant makes the change. A CCAP agency must describe the approval policy for a participant's change to an education or training program in the CCAP agency's child care fund plan.

[Repealed, 26 SR 253]

Subp. 17.

Temporary ineligibility for participants.

A CCAP agency must reserve a family's position under the child care fund if a family has been receiving child care assistance but is temporarily ineligible for assistance. A child care assistance participant who is a student may be temporarily ineligible for a maximum of one academic quarter or semester as determined by the student's academic calendar at the educational institution. Any other participant, including an employed participant, may be temporarily ineligible for a maximum of 90 days. A CCAP agency must place a family in temporary ineligibility when:

A.

a family meets all eligibility requirements at redetermination in Minnesota Statutes, sections 119B.09 and 119B.10, but is on an unverified temporary break from the family's authorized activity. To end a family's temporary ineligibility, a parentally responsible individual must meet and verify the minimum authorized activity requirements in Minnesota Statutes, section 119B.10;

B.

a family is ineligible for child care assistance due to increased income from active military service as provided in Minnesota Statutes, section 119B.09, subdivision 4a; or

C.

a family is eligible under Minnesota Statutes, section 119B.025, subdivision 1, paragraph (c), but has not submitted a verification of eligibility within the time frame required by Minnesota Statutes, section 119B.025, subdivision 1, paragraph (d).

Subp. 17a.

Authorization after temporary ineligibility.

A.

If a family in temporary ineligibility becomes eligible for child care assistance, the family's eligibility begins on the date that the family meets all eligibility requirements. For a family that is eligible for child care assistance under Minnesota Statutes, section 119B.025, subdivision 1, paragraph (c), the family's eligibility begins retroactively from the date that temporary ineligibility began, or on the date that the family began participating in an authorized activity, whichever is later.

B.

If a schedule reporter in temporary ineligibility becomes eligible for child care assistance, a CCAP agency must authorize child care based on the parentally responsible individual's verified activity schedule.

C.

If a 12-month reporter in temporary ineligibility becomes eligible for child care assistance during the 12-month eligibility period, a CCAP agency must authorize the same amount of child care that the family received before the family became temporarily ineligible, unless the family requests less child care or the family verifies that the family needs more child care. If a 12-month reporter who is temporarily ineligible becomes eligible when a CCAP agency approves the 12-month reporter's redetermination, the CCAP agency must authorize child care based on the amount of child care that the family needs and the verification that the family provides at redetermination. If a CCAP agency determines that a 12-month reporter is temporarily ineligible at redetermination and on a different date the 12-month reporter becomes eligible, a CCAP agency must authorize child care based on the amount of child care that the 12-month reporter needed and verified at the time that the family was no longer temporarily ineligible.

Subp. 17b.

Temporary ineligibility of family on waiting list.

A CCAP agency must reserve a family's position under the child care fund for up to 90 days if a family reaches the top of the basic sliding fee waiting list but is temporarily ineligible for child care assistance. In a CCAP agency's child care fund plan, the CCAP agency must specify whether the agency reserves positions under the child care fund longer than 90 days for temporarily ineligible families who reach the top of the basic sliding fee waiting list and, if so, the amount of additional time that the CCAP agency will reserve a family's position and the conditions under which the CCAP agency will reserve a family's position longer than 90 days.

Subp. 18.

Suspension.

A.

A CCAP agency must suspend and not terminate a family's eligibility for child care assistance for up to one continuous year if:

(1)

there are temporary breaks when the family does not need child care assistance;

(2)

the CCAP agency is unable to authorize child care due to missing schedule verifications; or

(3)

the family does not have an eligible child care provider.

B.

A CCAP agency must not decrease a 12-month reporter's authorized child care during the 12-month eligibility period if there is a temporary break or a change in the parentally responsible individual's employment, education and training, or employment plan activity, unless the 12-month reporter requests a reduction in authorized child care hours or requests that the CCAP agency suspend child care.

C.

A CCAP agency must end a schedule reporter's authorization and suspend the schedule reporter's eligibility if there is a temporary break in the schedule reporter's employment, education or training, or employment plan activity and the parentally responsible individual has no other authorized activity, unless the parentally responsible individual meets the criteria in part 3400.0110, subpart 10.

Subp. 18a.

Authorization after suspension.

A.

If a schedule reporter is no longer suspended, a CCAP agency must authorize the schedule reporter's child care based on the parentally responsible individual's verified activity schedule.

B.

If a 12-month reporter is no longer suspended during the 12-month eligibility period, a CCAP agency must authorize the same amount of child care that the 12-month reporter received before the 12-month reporter's suspension, unless the 12-month reporter requests less child care or the 12-month reporter verifies that the 12-month reporter needs more child care. If a 12-month reporter is no longer suspended when a CCAP agency approves the 12-month reporter's child care at redetermination, a CCAP agency must authorize the 12-month reporter's child care based on the amount of child care that the 12-month reporter needs and the verification that the 12-month reporter provides at redetermination. If a 12-month reporter is suspended at redetermination and on another date becomes eligible, a CCAP agency must authorize the 12-month reporter's child care based on the amount of child care that the 12-month reporter needs and that the 12-month reporter verifies at the time that the 12-month reporter becomes eligible.
