When an individual moves from one human service zone to another, participation in JOBS or Tribal NEW is considered a continuation of service and the individual is not treated as a new participant.

 

If the individual continues to be serviced by the same JOBS Employment Contractor or the same Tribal NEW agency, a new referral is not required. Anytime an individual relocates and continues to work with the same Tribal NEW agency, an SFN 323, JOBS Status of Change, must be sent to the Tribal NEW agency notifying them of the move.

 

If there is a change in the JOBS Employment Contractor or Tribal NEW agency, a new referral is required. These individuals must resume involvement in JOBS or Tribal NEW within seven (7) calendar days from the print date of the new referral. An SFN 323, JOBS Status of Change must be sent to the previous Tribal NEW agency notifying their agency the recipient is no longer working with their agency.

 

Referrals must be manually mailed to Tribal NEW agencies.

 

Sending Human Service Zone:

Consistent with Service Chapter 448-01-40-40, the eligibility worker is responsible to complete any unresolved actions in the individual’s case prior to transferring the file to the receiving Human Service Zone.

 

Receiving Human Service Zone:

The eligibility worker must:

1. Determine whether the individual should be referred to JOBS or Tribal NEW;

2. If required, create a new referral form in the automated computer system

3. If the referral is being made to a Tribal NEW Program, send a copy of the Tribal NEW referral form to the Tribal NEW office.
