How many days should be given to the client to return the requested information after a DSS-8650 is sent?

The request for information associated with DSS-8650 requires clients to respond within a specified timeframe to ensure timely processing and follow-up on their case. A period of 10 calendar days allows clients adequate time to compile and return the necessary information while maintaining the flow of services and support provided by the DSS (Department of Social Services). This timeframe reflects a balance between giving clients enough time to gather requested documents or information and the need for the DSS to proceed with case evaluations and decision-making efficiently. This approach helps promote effective communication and ensures compliance with procedural requirements.
