(1) A copy of the final state audit report, letter, or other written notice of adjustment from the Office of State Controller that explains the claim components adjusted, amounts reduced, and the reasons for the reduction.

(2) A copy of the subject reimbursement claims submitted to the Office of State Controller.

(3) A notice of intent to join a consolidated incorrect reduction claim shall include a certification by the joining claimant authorizing the original claimant to act as its representative in the consolidated incorrect reduction claim, and a declaration under penalty of perjury that the filing is true and complete to the best of the declarant's personal knowledge, information, or belief. The date signed, the declarant's title, address, telephone number, and e-mail address shall be included. All representations of fact shall be supported by testimonial or documentary evidence in accordance with section 1187.5 of these regulations.

If a complete notice of intent to join a consolidated incorrect reduction claim is not received by the Commission within 30 days from the date the incomplete notice of intent was returned to the joining claimant, the executive director may deem the filing withdrawn.

(d) Any notice of intent to join the consolidated incorrect reduction claim, or portion thereof, that the Commission lacks jurisdiction to hear for any reason, including that the notice was not filed within the period of limitation required by section 1185.1(c) of these regulations, may be rejected or dismissed by the executive director with a written notice stating the reason therefor.
