Steps for Subsidy Extension Due to Adding a Child to Receive Services

Step 1 Add a child to the household and add the child to the waiting list, if services are requested OR add an existing child to the waiting list to receive services.

Step 2 When funding is available to pull the child from the waiting list, the case subsidy end date must be extended to provide 53 weeks of services for the new child, this will require a data change.

Step 3 Vouchers for all children must be created for the extension. This will require the existing case to be extended to accommodate the new child up to 53 weeks, which must be completed through a data change request. This may extend the case for up to an additional 52 weeks (if the child is added the week before reauthorization) to allow ALL children to have a minimum 53 week-voucher.

PLEASE NOTE: This extension may occur multiple times during a subsidy period (if additional children are added before the end of the subsidy period) to allow ALL children to have a minimum 53 week-voucher.

Eligibility does not have to be re-confirmed when the case is extended. Please verify that address, phone, and email are still correct, and update as needed. No documentation is required.

3.5 Self-Employment In situations where a reauthorizing Applicant or Co-Applicant has provided evidence of a request for an IRS Tax Transcript (IRS form 4506T-EZ) the subsidy period of fifty-three (53) weeks may be extended eight (8) weeks to provide an opportunity for receipt of the tax transcript.
