Verification Docs
The CW 80 is needed to verify the FMV and encumbrance on a vehicle. In addition, the applicant/participant will not need to declare the FMV or amount owed for the vehicle when an exemption is declared.
The CW 80 is also sufficient to verify exemption reasons with the exception of the exemption due to “gift, donation, or family transfer.”
Verifications and Acceptable Documents
Amount of encumbrance, if any
CW 80
FMV of the vehicle(s)
CW 80
Exemption reason (other than vehicle transfer as a gift, donation, or family transfer)
CW 80
Exemption Verification when vehicle was transferred to the applicant/participant as a gift, donation, or family transfer
Verification from the DMV: Copy of the original title transfer or Bill of Sale documentation from the DMV indicating the vehicle was a gift, donation, or family transfer. When verification is not provided, the applicant/participant must indicate the FMV and any encumbrances of the vehicle in order to determine the excess equity value that is countable towards the AU’s resource limit. Note: Neither the CW 80 nor SAWS 2 PLUS Appendix E are acceptable documents when the applicant/participant reports that a vehicle was a gift, donation, or family transfer.
