(2) all pending reviews of the appeal and the date of any upcoming hearings related to the appeal;

(3) the department's final determination, if one is made as of the date the request for information is fulfilled, or otherwise the date on which the applicant can expect that the department will make a final determination concerning the appeal;

(4) a list of all documents related to the appeal and the date on which each document was filed; and

(5) an explanation for any decision to deny an application for aid, and, if eventual approval is still possible, an explanation for ways to remedy the application.
