In past years, the Department of Social Services (DSS) has noted that a potential driver of this steady caseload decline may be fewer individuals meeting income and asset eligibility thresholds.

The 2020-21 May Revision: CalWORKs Caseload-Driven Costs in the 2020-21 May Revision

Jun 2, 2020 - First, all UI recipients are entitled to recei ve $600 per week above their traditional UI benefit through July  31, 2020. Although these additional dollars are excluded when calculating CalWORKs grant levels, we expect them to nevertheless impact recipients ’ interest in applying for CalWORKs, as the $600 weekly benefit far exceeds the maximum CalWORKs weekly benefit for a family of three (about $245).
