1818 If any person receiving an award for the care of any dependent child or children, or any person legally liable for the support of such child or children, or any other person being supported wholly or in part under the provisions of the state supplement program, medical assistance program, temporary family assistance program or state-administered general assistance program or any beneficiary under such provisions or any legally liable relative of such beneficiary, receives property, wages, income or resources of any kind, such person or beneficiary, [within] not later than ten days after obtaining knowledge of or receiving such property, wages, income or resources of any kind, shall notify the commissioner thereof, orally or in writing, unless good cause is established for failure to provide such notice, as determined by the commissioner. No such person or beneficiary shall sell, assign, transfer, encumber or otherwise dispose of any property without the consent of the commissioner, provided the commissioner shall not (1) delay a decision on consent for more than ten business days after receiving a request for consent, and (2) treat as inferior to the state's interest in the property any sale, assignment, transfer or encumbrance for which the commissioner's consent was granted and that was recorded prior to any lien placed by the commissioner on the property. The provisions of section 17b-137 shall be applicable with respect to any person applying for or receiving an award under such provisions. Except for the supplemental nutrition assistance program, any change in the information which has been furnished on an application form or a redetermination of eligibility form shall also be reported to the commissioner, orally or in writing, within ten days of the occurrence of such change, unless good cause is established for failure to provide such notice, as determined by the commissioner. For participants in the supplemental nutrition assistance program, the commissioner shall establish reporting requirements regarding such changes in information in accordance with applicable federal law, as may be amended from time to time.
