I.3 IMM CHANGE PROCESS DOHS updates the IMM on a regular basis in order to remain consistent with changing state and federal policies and regulations. Changes are documented and communicated in two ways: 1. By DW-17 number, also known as the “change number.” The DW-17 summarizes all of the IMM changes made at a single point in time, by chapter. The DW-17s can be found and searched on the DOHS website at: http://www.DoHS.wv.gov/bcf/Services/familyassistance/Pages/IMMSearch.aspx. 2. Within each chapter, the “Change Log” following the Table of Contents, documents the date a section was changed, the associated DW-17 number, and highlights the specific changes made.
