| Description of Subjects/Issues |
On October 18, 2016, the Social Security Administration (SSA) announced a 0.3% Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) for all Social Security and Supplemental Security Income recipients effective December 31, 2016. This means an increase in Adult Financial assistance. These rules propose an increase to the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) maximum payment by two dollars ($2) ($733 x 0.3% = $2) to $735 per month.
This rule will revise the Colorado Department of Human Services rules to increase the Old Age Pension (OAP) grant standard to $773, the Aid to the Needy Disabled Colorado Supplement (AND-CS) grant standard to $735, and the Adult Foster Care (AFC) grant standard to $1367 in order to pass along the COLA increase. The components of the grant standard will be adjusted accordingly. |
