7 AAC 47.040. Documentation

If at all possible, an applicant shall make himself available for an interview at a district office of the division. If he cannot be interviewed, statements of other persons who have knowledge of the applicant's need or of aspects of his circumstances relating to factors of eligibility must be obtained. Whether or not the applicant can be interviewed personally, he shall furnish adequate evidence to demonstrate his specific need and his eligibility for assistance. If there are compelling reasons beyond the control of the applicant or the division why adequate evidence cannot be obtained in a timely manner, and if there is no reasonable cause to doubt statements of fact presented by or on behalf of the applicant, assistance may be granted before receipt of the necessary evidence, upon approval by a regional manager of the division or his designee. The provision of assistance in such cases will neither relieve the recipient of the liability to repay granted assistance for which he is not entitled as provided by AS 47.25.260 , nor will it prevent possible fraud prosecution under AS 47.25.290 .
