ICT Escalation Process

[EAS 40-197]

Refer to Common Place Handbook ICT Escalation Process.

Intra-Program Status Change

[EAS 40-190.23]

Intra-Program status changes do not alter the “ICT period,” nor do they constitute a discontinuance for cause. Use the following examples as a guideline:

If... Then...
There is a change from CalWORKs to Medi-Cal before the expiration of the ICT period, The sending county's responsibility for a cash grant and/or medical assistance only continues until the end of the ICT period.
The client is receiving Medi-Cal only in the sending county and requests CalWORKs in the receiving county, The sending county is responsible for the continuation of the Medi-Cal only. The receiving county is responsible for the determination of eligibility and payment of CalWORKs aid, following regular beginning date of aid rules.
CalWORKs eligibility changes to Post-Medi-Cal eligibility during the transfer period, The sending county is responsible for the Post-Medi-Cal period. 

Transitional CalFresh (TCF)

SB 1339 requires counties to complete ICTs for TCF cases during any month of the five month period. Whichever county the TCF recipient voluntarily notifies of the move, must initiate an ICT within seven (7) business days of receiving the notification.

Example Example A client notifies County A (current county of residence) on June 5th that they have moved to County B. Within seven business days, County A initiates the transfer to County B. By June 14th, County B will accept the case. Benefits and payment responsibility shall be transferred no later than August 1st.
