1. Register the application if it is received prior to the interview.
2. Check Motor Vehicle records:

1. Check under names of all household members.
2. Check under maiden names, alleged absent parent name, or other names used by household members.
3. Print the Motor Vehicle screens and check trade-in value.
4. Check for expiration date of license and note any unlicensed vehicles.

3. Copy the MOIA (Monthly Inquiry Authorization) screens (Function 3 on MOMM menu).
4. Read the last narrative.
5. Check case alerts.
6. Review the last application or recertification form.
7. Check FACSES and New Hire.
8. Check DIRE to see if there are any outstanding claims.
9. If there is an outstanding claim, check NOHS to see if the client received a Treasury Offset Notice (TOP). If so, and the application is being approved, contact the State Office so the State Office can set the client to "inactive" in the TOP file and reopen the claim. Recoupment will then begin with allotment reduction. Regulations prohibit collection from TOP if the client is an open food stamp case, unless the client is eligible for a zero benefit.

1. DN 696 - Simplified Reporting Information Fact Sheet
2. SFN 385 Affidavit for FS Work Requirements
3. DN 1860 - Notice to all FSP Work Registrants
4. Checklist for requested verifications
5. Any other forms that may be pertinent to the case

(i.e. IIM account, authorization for release of information)
