(a) Once enrollment is completed for single adults and couples without dependent children, those family units shall be subject to verification of continuing eligibility for NJ FamilyCare.

(d) An eligibility redetermination shall occur 12 months following the date of the previous determination or redetermination for each single adult or couple without dependent children initially determined to be eligible for NJ FamilyCare. This redetermination shall be conducted by the eligibility determination agency responsible for the case at the time the redetermination is required.
(e) For those individuals who are receiving benefits under Work First New Jersey/General Assistance, the redetermination cycle shall follow the schedule set forth in N.J.A.C. 10:90.
