11.5.1.1 Determining the Date of Noncooperation

The date of noncooperation is the date, determined by the W-2 agency, on which the participant was expected to cooperate with the requirements of the W-2 program.

EXAMPLE 1: A participant’s EP review is scheduled for March 17 and the participant did not show for the appointment. Without good cause, the date of noncooperation is March 17.

EXAMPLE 2: The last date of contact the W-2 agency had with a participant was July 1. The FEP is unable to contact the participant after 30 calendar days of repeated and varied contact attempts. The date of noncooperation is July 31.
