1298 (07/2026) Chapter 8: Examples • Chapter 8: Examples Example 2: Amber’s application for TA-DVS was received 2/15 at 4:30 pm and the TA-DVS Safety Screening (DHS 7802) is offered immediately. The scheduler schedules an intake on 2/16 at 10:00 am. Amber will be seen, and her eligibility will be determined within the 16 working hours. Example 3: Joseph is applying for TA-DVS on 4/1. The scheduler asks Joseph if he is available for an intake later today. Joseph replies that he is safe and unable to come back to the office until 4/12. The worker offers an immediate TA-DVS Safety Screening (DHS 7802) and schedules an intake for Joseph on 4/12 and case notes that Joseph requested his TA-DVS intake on a later date and he is safe. On 4/12 the intake worker will need to determine Joseph’s TA-DVS eligibility within 16 hours of the date of intake time. Certification period Example 1: Jacyln contacts her worker on the 90th day of her TA-DVS certification period. She wants to extend her certification period, so she can locate housing. She states that she has not had any luck finding a place to rent. The worker explains to Jacyln that there are no extensions. Her TA-DVS benefits are ending today and if there is still a safety concern, Jacyln will need to reapply. Example 2: Blake has an open TA-DVS case and the 90th day is in two months. Blake came into the office today to request use of the entire grant amount. He has located safe housing and is ready to move in. ODHS makes payment for the housing, exhausting the grant. A month passes and Blake returns to the office requesting more TA-DVS funds, because the home he has moved into is not safe anymore. The worker explains to Blake that he has accessed the full grant and his 90-day certification period will not expire for another month. The worker offers Blake other resources in the area and offers the option to meet with the co-located DV advocate. Example 3: Jessica is approved for TA-DVS and uses $700.00 of her funds to move out of state to a safe location in Nebraska. Once she has left Oregon and relocated, the worker closes her TA-DVS case as no further funds can be issued once she is no longer an Oregon resident. Two weeks later, her abuser locates her and the survivor flees and returns to Oregon. She is still within her original 90-day certification period and there is a domestic violence safety concern. The worker will review for TA-DVS eligibility and reopen her case for the remainder of the 90-day certification period. Incomplete application process Example 1: Soto was meeting with her intake worker for TA-DVS. During the intake Soto became distraught and requested to leave. She did not want to continue with the interview and walked out. In this situation, because we do not have a completed interview, we do not have enough information to determine TA-DVS eligibility. The worker would case note the interaction and how it ended and attempt to reach out to Soto if it is safe to do so. The case will remain in ‘Pending (Intake)’ mode until the survivor completes the application process or 30 days from the filing date passes. When a new application is required Example 1: An applicant comes in and is denied TA-DVS because there is no child in the home, and we are unable to determine when the child will be returned. If the applicant returns a week later and reports the child is now in the home, the applicant needs to complete a new application for TA-DVS.
