2.1.7 Confirming the FS Eligibility Determination in CARES

Before confirming FS eligibility, ESS must ensure that the correct eligibility determination has been made.  A check of individual eligibility details of the non-financial results and also the budget details are essential.  Some items to consider are:

  1. Are verifications complete?

  2. Are correct household members included in the food unit/food group?

  3. Is correct income used?

  4. Are correct expenses and deductions allowed?

  5. If the AG is denied, is the denial reason correct?

  6. Is there clear documentation in CARES case comments?

 

If so, confirm the FS eligibility and process a referral to the FSET program, if applicable (3.16.1).
