If a household certified as a simplified reporting household no longer meets the simplified reporting criteria, the household remains a simplified reporting household until the six month report or recertification, whichever occurs first.  

Exception:

If a simplified reporting household applies and is eligible for TANF, including Diversion Assistance, the household becomes a monthly reporting household for TANF.   The worker must change the “FS Simplified Reporting Household – Send Six Month Report Form” indicator to an “N” on the CHRS screen the first month following approval of the TANF application.  The monthly report will be sent out of Vision.   

 

If at six month report or recertification, the household no longer meets the simplified reporting criteria, the worker must enter an N on the FS Simplified Reporting Household – Send Six Month Report Form.  TECS will then automatically send a change report form and Notice X420 - Change Reporting Requirements to the household.

 

Example:

A simplified reporting household that contains all elderly household members certified in October reports the loss of all earned income on November 15th. The household remains a simplified reporting household until the six month report is due on March 10th.  At the time the six month report is processed, the FS Simplified Reporting Household – Send Six Month Report Form indicator must be set to an N.  The household is subject to change reporting requirements for the remainder of the certification period.
