what is sar 7

SAR 7 is a report form that some CalWORKs (cash aid) and CalFresh households in California must complete, sign, and send to the county to keep their benefits coming on time. It is a Semi-Annual Eligibility Status Report that must be completed every six months. The report form is required to be signed under penalty of perjury, which means that the facts provided must be true, correct, and complete. The SAR 7 form asks questions about the households income, expenses, and other changes that could affect their eligibility or the amount of their benefits. The form also requires proof of other types of income, such as check stubs, copies of checks, or award letters from the agency that provided the money. Failure to complete the report will result in a delay or loss of benefits.
