1254 (07/2026) Chapter 8: Examples • Chapter 8: Examples Example 3: Fatima is receiving Expanded Child Welfare ERDC for her grandson, Youssef. The case is authorized with the part-time hour allotment of 108 hours/month. On 3/5, Fatima contacts her family coach and shares that she’s begun attending weekly counseling and parenting support groups required by her ODHS safety plan. She will also be meeting regularly with her caseworker. The family coach uses the Child Care Additional Hours Request (Cat-El/EXP-CW) screen in ONE to record the request and notes the need for additional hours to participate in required family well-being activities. The family coach approves the case for a full-time allotment of 215 hours/month, effective 4/1. The family coach emails DPU to request that the March CCB be reissued with 215 hours, or that an adjustment be made if it has already been paid.

Raj is eligible for the full-time (40 hours per week, plus travel time) authorization of hours because his combined student, study time and work hours fall between 21-40 hours per week. Example 3: Two-caretakers, one caretaker working/one caretaker attending school Giuseppe and Paolo provided verification of income and student status, in which highest overlapping work and student hours are 8 per week.
