the WIN Job Center for an assessment and immediate placement into an allowable component to begin TWP participation. No Show for Up Front Job Search/Voc Rehab When the applicant no shows for the Up Front Job Search/Voc Rehab referral appointment, the CM must enter the Withdraw TANF Application (WD) code within 2 days of the scheduled appointment. This will generate a referral to MAVERICS to alert the EW the application was denied in JAWS. If the WD code is not entered by case management, JAWS will automatically deny the referral by entering the No Show (NS) code on day three. A denial notice will be generated to the client in MAVERICS and JAWS will not send a conciliation notice to the individual. Compliance - Although Sanction Not Applied (Manual Process) When a TANF case closes due to a program violation, the case must not be re-approved until the household is in compliance. Cases closed for specific program violations will be identified in MAVERICS by the closure reason. However, there will be times when the TANF case may already be in a FRozen status when JAWS sends the non-compliance to MAVERICS. If the program status of the TANF case is RECEIVED, PENDED, CLOSED, DENIED or FROZEN, MAVERICS will ignore the conciliation. If the case closes for any reason other than noncompliance, MAVERICS will send a ‘CL’ code and the conciliation record will be closed in JAWS. This will require special handling at reapplication or during the FRozen status because compliance with the violation must be verified before re-authorization or re-approval. 1. MAVERICS will send an alert to indicate that JAWS sent a conciliation record. MAVERICS will “flag” the case but will not sanction the participant. If the participant who is “flagged” reapplies for TANF benefits, MAVERICS will alert the EW that the participant must comply with the TWP. 2. The MDHS-EA-319, TWP Conciliation Status Request, will be used for communication between the intake eligibility worker and the case manager at reapplication and prior to reapproval for TANF benefits when the TANF case closes for another reason and MAVERICS ignores the conciliation. The form may be initiated by either the intake eligibility worker or case manager. The initiator of the form will prepare an original and one copy of the MDHSEA-319, TWP Conciliation Status Request, sending the original to request or convey [CONCILIATION, GOOD CAUSE AND

The form with associated material must be maintained in the TANF electronic case record. Completed forms should be sent/mailed daily.
