- TO:
 - ALL FAMILY SUPPORT DIVISION OFFICES
 - FROM:
 - JULIE GIBSON, DIRECTOR
 - SUBJECT:
 - TA DIVERSION PHASE II – Impacts Processing Centers
 
DISCUSSION:
The purpose of this  memorandum is to inform staff of the changes to the TA Diversion program, which  was first announced in IM-#1 January 4, 2016.
 TA Diversion cases are  now automated.  The manual process used  in Phase I is no longer needed.  
 Changes in processing  include:
- Do not create a WIBCA (worker initiated budget calculation adjustment) to authorize the Diversion payment.
 - FAMIS will correctly close the case. A supervisor or higher must not reject the application to prevent duplicate issuances of regular TA and a diversion payment.
 - The verification field on the DVERSION screen in FAMIS now pends for the appropriate verification.
 - The IM-32DIV is obsolete as FAMIS will generate notices.
 - The FAMIS TA Diversion User Guide is obsolete.
 
NOTE: All TA Diversion applications are processed by the Jackson County Processing Center.
NECESSARY ACTION:
- DO NOT create WIBCAS on Diversion cases.
 - Review this memorandum with appropriate staff.
