You will lose your PAAD, Lifeline, HAAAD and Senior Gold eligibility if:

1. You establish residency outside of the State of New Jersey;
2. Your annual income exceeds the income limits set by law;
3. You lose your Social Security Disability benefits;
4. You are eligible and do not enroll or remain enrolled in a Medicare Part D Prescription Drug Plan.

NOTE: If you lose eligibility because of an increase in your annual income, you are liable for repayment of all moneys paid on your behalf by the State of New Jersey from the beginning of the calendar year, not just those payments made after your income increased.

Failure to repay the State for incorrectly paid benefits could cause the suspension of your PAAD, Lifeline, and HAAAD benefits in the future, as well as possible withholding of all or some of any rebates or refunds which may be due you from the Division of Taxation.

If you put false information on your application, you are liable for civil and criminal penalties under the New Jersey Medical Assistance and Health Services Act. You could lose your eligibility for one year for a first offense, and permanently for a second offense.

By law, you MUST notify PAAD, Lifeline, HAAAD or Senior Gold of any changes that will affect your eligibility. If for any reason you become ineligible, you MUST return your PAAD card to the PAAD program.

PAAD, Lifeline, HAAAD and Senior Gold mail is not forwarded, so you must notify these programs in writing of any change in your address; please be sure to provide two proofs of your new residence.

Failure to report a change of address could delay your PAAD, Lifeline, HAAAD or Senior Gold benefit. Please include your full name and Social Security number.

You may be contacted for additional information needed to process your application. Also, you may be contacted as part of a sample group or by random auditing to assure that the information you provided is valid and accurate. However, if you refuse to be interviewed, you could lose your eligibility.
