Miscellaneous - Reimbursements to the Household 415-35-20-20-05
(Revised 10/00 ML #2629)
All reimbursements to households for PAID heating costs will be made as miscellaneous payments. They may be reimbursed for their expenditure(s) by providing proof of payment and a copy of the bill to the county social service office.
The county worker should not enter a reimbursement to the household unless the total is at least $5.00 or more. If the reimbursement is less than $5.00, this amount should not be paid to the household unless there would be an additional miscellaneous payment that would bring the total to at least $5.00 and these amounts were entered so they would all process at the next checkwrite. The checkwrite would then generate a check for the combined total of at least $5.00 or more.
If a vendor will not be directly billing LIHEAP, the "Household Data" screen will be completed showing Code 04 (Miscellaneous Only) for payment type, and NO authorization period or vendor ID. The household's name will NOT be printed on any vendor's "Request for Payment" printout.
Option F, "Miscellaneous or Emergency" screen will be used to enter the reimbursement.
