By when must the new SSP be completed and submitted to the plan reviewer?

Submitting the new SSP roughly 45 days before the end of the current plan year is about giving the plan reviewer enough time to review, request any needed revisions, and finalize approvals before year-end. This window helps avoid gaps in services or lapses in authorization by ensuring the plan can be updated and in place for the next year. If it’s sent much later, there may not be enough time for a full review and possible modifications before year-end. If it’s sent too early, there’s a risk the plan could change or new information could emerge that would require starting the review again. The 45-day lead time strikes a practical balance, supporting a smooth transition into the next plan year.
