424-2 VERIFICATION OF AGE
424-2 A. BLIND OR DISABLED INDIVIDUALS
The case worker does not need to verify the age of a blind or disabled individual unless there is reason to question the individual's own declaration of age.
The case worker must verify the age of all individuals who claim to be at least 65 years old.
424-2 C. AGE VERIFICATION PROCEDURES
Section 105-13 A of the Administrative Procedures Manual explains DPA age verification procedures in general. An additional acceptable source of age verification for the APA program is the Social Security Administration.
The case worker may accept oral or written confirmation of a client's date of birth from an office of the Social Security Administration if SSA indicates that the client's case file contains documentary proof of age.
