TO: ALL FAMILY SUPPORT OFFICES
FROM: KIM EVANS, DIRECTOR
SUBJECT: FAMIS UPDATES FOR REQUESTS FOR INFORMATION (FA325) AND DIVISION OF ASSETS REQUEST FOR VERIFICATION (FA479)
DISCUSSION:
Updates were completed to the FAMIS eligibility system to allow participants to see a relevant date for each type of requested verification.
As each program may request verification for one or more months to determine initial and ongoing eligibility, this modification allows for participants to see clearly what month the information is being requested for. This does NOT replace special instruction fields entered by staff.
Request for Information (FA325) used for Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), Temporary Assistance (TA), and Non-MAGI MO HealthNet (MHN) was updated to display the month and year requested for all eligibility factors.
Division of Assets Request for Verification (FA479) used for Non-MAGI MHN was updated to display the month and year requested for any resources owned at the date of institutionalization. The date displayed is the last month and year entered in FAMIS for the resource before the date of institutionalization if it was not previously verified.
NECESSARY ACTION:
- Review this memorandum with appropriate staff.
