The Department of Health and Human Services will hold a public hearing to receive public comments on  
proposed changes to the State Disability Assistance Program rule set.  
Rule set is being amended to align with the federal government recommendation for each state to change its  
current replacement process of theft of SDA or FIP benefits from a manual process pending verification of fraud  
with timely EBT replacements will quickly alleviate the concerns of a family fear of not timely paying obligations  
due to the theft.

1939 PA 280, MCL 400.6.  
The proposed rules will take effect immediately after filing with the Secretary of State. The proposed rules are  
published on the State of Michigan's website at http://www.michigan.gov/ARD and in the 10/1/2024 issue of the  
Michigan Register. Copies of these proposed rules may also be obtained by mail or email at the following email
