7.2.5 Denying or Terminating an Unsubsidized Employment Case Management Placement

If an individual placed in a CMD Case Management Denied , CMU Case Management Underemployed , CMF Case Management Follow-Up , CMF+ Case Management Follow-Up Plus , or CMJ Case Management Job-Ready declines case management services or does not participate without good cause, the FEP Financial and Employment Planner must:

Terminate eligibility for the placement; and

Document the refusal in PIN comments.

CWW CARES Worker Web will issue a W-2 Wisconsin Works denial notice.

There is no hourly payment reduction for noncooperation in CMD, CMU, CMF, CMF+, or CMJ placements. However, the FEP may close a CMD or CMJ placement if an individual:

Does not cooperate with job search requirements;

Misses an EP Employability Plan review appointment without good cause (see 11.5.1 ); or

Loses contact with the FEP.

The FEP should close a CMF, CMF+, or CMU placement if:

A participant fails to attend an EP or eligibility review appointment without good cause; or

The FEP has made repeated and varied attempts but is unable to connect with a participant.

Eligibility reviews must be conducted at least once every six months to maintain nonfinancial eligibility.
