Require the Department of Health and Human Services to screen state wards for social security benefit eligibility

Reduced the asset threshold for social security benefit eligibility from $2,000 to $1,000, making it easier for more children in state care to qualify for benefits.

Added requirement to notify parents of all social security benefit eligibility determinations and appointments within ten calendar days, in addition to notifying the child and guardian ad litem.

Expanded notice requirements when the department serves as representative payee to include parents, specifying the notice must be sent within thirty days of receiving the first benefit payment.

Added provision allowing children aged fourteen or older to request that benefit payments be conserved in a specified manner through juvenile court.

Added right for child beneficiaries, guardians, attorneys, and parents to request all accounting records maintained by the department regarding social security benefit payments.

Changed screening timeline language from 'within sixty days after the date the child enters its charge' to 'within sixty days after the date the child enters its charge' (minor formatting change).
