55 Pa. Code § 201.1 - Policy
Client as the primary source of information. Regulations concerning the client as the primary source of information are as follows:
(1) The
client will be the primary source of information in establishing eligibility
for financial assistance. As a condition of eligibility the client will be
required, to the extent that he is able, to substantiate the information he has
provided by documentary evidence or other means as may serve to establish the
truth of his statements.
(2) The
worker should keep in mind that, because of age, physical or mental
disabilities, language difficulties, and other factors, individuals will have
differing capacities for assisting with the establishment of eligibility. The
client will always be informed that the help of the worker will be available to
him to the extent that it is needed at any point.
