-  * DSHS temporarily expanded Basic Food eligibility for students of higher education. This includes students who either are determined eligible for work-study, or have an Expected Family Contribution of $0 in the current academic year - rules will continue until 30 days after the COVID-19 Public Health emergency is lifted +
-  * The maximum allotments for food assistance were increased by 15% - approved by congress, and will continue through June 30, 2021 +
-  * Clients considered "Able-Bodied Adults Without Dependents" in all counties, including King County, will be temporarily granted good cause to not be terminated for non-participation due to the Governor’s Safe Start proclamation, which limit available activities. They will still be offered referrals to employment navigators. +
-  * DSHS expanded the TANF 60-month Time Limit Extension to support families experiencing hardships due to the COVID-19 emergency +
-  * All TANF WorkFirst participants are temporarily exempt from required participation. Clients can choose to continue participation and, to the extent possible, case management will continue, but participation will not be required. +
-  * DSHS temporarily suspended TANF WorkFirst sanction reduction or termination penalties. This also suspends the need for a home visit by our staff as part of the sanction process. Clients who closed in sanction will not have to cure sanction before being eligible for the cash grant. +
-  * DSHS conducts a TANF Teen Living Assessment, which may include a home visit for all unmarried, minor parents applying for TANF cash assistance, to determine eligibility and offer support to the household. The home visits are suspended until further notice. Specialists are responsible to make their best effort to determine a safe living environment and situation, for the teen and their child, by completing all required assessment screening tools in the office or over the phone. +
-  * All TANF WorkFirst Orientations are being conducted via the telephone. +
-  * DSHS suspended treatment monitoring and good cause for participation in medical treatment for ABD, participation in substance use assessment and treatment and participation in vocational rehabilitation. +

-  * Mental Incapacity Evaluation contracts have been amended to allow for telephonic psychological evaluations. +
-  * Benefits will also not close for recipients of Medicaid unless the individual requests their benefits be terminated, the individual is no longer a Washington state resident or the individual is deceased.  +
-  * All cash and food Mid-Certification Reports required under WAC 388-418-0011 are waived from November 2020 to June 2021 while households meet all other eligibility requirements. +
-  * The Refugee Cash/Medical Assistance eligibility period for clients who became eligible for RCA on or after April 1, 2019 through Aug. 31, 2020 is extended and clients may receive additional months of RCA/RMA benefits not extending beyond April 30, 2021. +
-  * ORR has waived the 90-day requirement for completing the Refugee Health Screening. ORIA requests that contracted RHS providers notify ORIA and DOH directly about any post-90-day refugee health screenings. +
-  * For clients participating in certain ORR-funded programs, the 60-month eligibility limitation is waived through April 30, 2021. Clients are eligible beyond five years, as long as they have not naturalized. +
