614 Chapter 3:Processes and procedures • Section 1: Acting on reported changes (07/2026) duty or a member of a National Guard or a U.S. Armed Forces Reserve unit (not discharged), there is no need for a transition period. The case will remain the same. AMT begins the month after the participant returns home. If they do not report within 10 days, the six- month count still starts the month after they have returned home; however, the waiver will begin the month after the change is reported. AMT ends before six months if the military member returns to active duty. The waiver ends after the six-month period, and the case remains open through the end of the certification if the military member becomes employed; however, if the military member does not find employment, the AMT period will automatically close the case at the end of six months. Income is not adjusted during the AMT period unless it is less than the amount received prior to AMT; in that case, verification is required. Employment after AMT If the military member finds employment, ODHS|OHA will only adjust the income if it is less than the amount prior to AMT; verification will be needed. The child care hours may be increased if they need more hours; verification of hours will be needed. AMT is not removed when new employment is reported prior to the end of the six-month transition; AMT allows the copay to continue to be waived for a full six months. The case is tracked to remove the AMT code at the end of six months. A reapplication is needed if the end of the six-month transition occurs the last month of the certification or if AMT extends beyond the end certification date. If there are months remaining in the certification, AMT will end after six months; this allows ERDC to continue through the end of the certification. REF This does not apply to the REF program.
