MISSISSIPPI [NON-FINANCIAL CRITERIA: TIME LIMITS]

Revised 09-01-17

County staff and Regional staff are responsible for recommending and approving TANF 60-month time limit extensions. The County TANF 20% Exemption Summary (TA120A) and the TANF 20% Exemption Regional County Summary (TA121A) reports run at the end of each month for the current month and can be viewed and printed through Worksite. These reports must be used by the County Director and the Regional Director to review and monitor TANF 60-month time limit extensions and the 20% exemption cap. County Level Reviews The TA120A, County TANF 20% Exemption Summary, identifies the exempt families whose 60- month counter is greater than 60 and displays the case number, name, JOBS status code and the status of the 60-month counter. The report also displays the county’s countable caseload, the calculated 20% for the county, the number of exemptions claimed and the number of exemptions available. The County Director will use this report to monitor the county’s 20% exemptions and to ensure the number of cases approved for the 60-month time limit exemption does not exceed the 20% calculated for the county.

The County Director is required to complete a case review for each case listed on the report no later than the 10th of the month. The County Director will work with the appropriate county staff to resolve any issues identified during the case review. The County Director must sign, date, scan and email the report to the Regional Director no later than the 15th of each month.

The Regional Director will use this report to monitor each county’s 20% exemptions and the 20% maximum for the region. The Regional Director is required to collect and review the county reports, randomly select at least one case from each county with exemptions and complete a case review. The Regional Director will work
