§17-684.1-20 Failure to comply with a comparable
work requirement under Title IV of the Social Security
Act or unemployment compensation. (a) A household
containing a member who was exempt from the work
registration requirement in accordance with sections
17-684.1-10 and 17-684.1-14 because the individual was
registered for work in any program under Title IV of
the Social Security Act, 42 U.S.C. §§630-644,
including the First-to-Work program (FTW), or
unemployment compensation and who fails to comply with
the Title IV or unemployment compensation requirement
comparable to a food stamp work registration or
employment and training requirement shall be treated
as though the member failed to comply with the
corresponding food stamp requirements.
(b) If the department learns that a household
member has refused or failed without good cause to
comply with the Title IV or unemployment compensation
requirement, the department shall determine whether
the requirement was comparable to the food stamp work
requirement.
(c) If the household reports the loss or denial
of AFDC or unemployment compensation, or if the
department otherwise learns of the loss or denial, the
department shall determine whether the loss or denial
was caused by a determination by the administering
agency that a household member refused or failed
without good cause to comply with the work requirement
and, if so, whether the requirement was comparable to
the food stamp work registration or job search
requirement. The Title IV or unemployment
compensation requirement shall not be considered
comparable if it places responsibilities on the
household which exceed those imposed by the food stamp
work requirements.
(d) If the department determines that the Title
IV or unemployment compensation requirement is
comparable to the food stamp work requirement, the
individual shall be disqualified as follows:
(1) The department shall provide the household
with a notice of adverse action within ten
days after learning of the household
