Benefits Application Deadline Agent

Submit complete applications on time and keep benefits active

Benefits Application Deadline Agent: what goes in, what the agent does and what you get

What it does

Benefit applications and renewals for food, health coverage, disability or housing support have deadlines and long document lists, and a missed one can cut off support. This agent tracks each client's applications and renewal dates, lists the documents each program needs, and marks which are collected. Two weeks before a deadline it reminds the worker, drafts a client reminder, and drafts letters requesting proof from employers or landlords. Seven days out it checks that everything is submitted. If not, it escalates to the worker with options such as an extension request. It watches the agency portal and flags requests for more information or denials. The worker approves every submission and appeal. Edge case: renewal dates are tracked from the case file, since notices sent to an old address go unseen.

How it works

Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.

An example run

What happensClient Rosa Vega's food benefit renewal was due June 30. On June 2, the agent listed two missing items: a pay stub and a lease. Worker Tim Cho approved a reminder. On June 16, the lease was still missing, so the check failed. The agent looped back and drafted a landlord letter request. Tim approved, the lease arrived June 20, and the renewal was submitted June 23.
