In the annual re-determination, the new plan must be completed and submitted no less than how many days before the end of the current plan year?

The key idea is giving enough lead time to complete and submit the new plan so it can be reviewed and approved before the current plan year ends. The minimum lead time is 90 days. Submitting at least 90 days in advance allows time to gather needed information, coordinate with the family and providers, make any necessary adjustments, and process approvals without risking a gap in services as the year closes. Shorter timeframes like 60 or 30 days don’t meet the required minimum, while 120 days is longer than the minimum (it would still meet the requirement, but the question asks for the minimum).
