CalWORKs Policy - Department of Public Social Services

When is a PA 1725 initiated/generated?
LEADER will generate a PA 1725:
• At intake, and
• At redetermination, and
• When adding a child age 6 through 17 to the
Assistance Unit, and
• When ten or more un-excused absences have
been identified in the School Information Screen,
and
• Upon demand.
LEADER will also centrally mail a PA 1725:
• Twenty (20) days after an initial PA 1725 is
returned verifying that a child is “not in regular
attendance,” and
• Sixty (60) days before a teen’s 18 th birthday.
NOTE: The PA 1725 is LEADER generated/centrally
mailed in English and Spanish only; all other
languages must be provided (out of drawer) to
CalWORKs applicants/participants.
See CW 42-101 Age Requirement for more information.
What form is used when the report card is
unavailable?
The PA 1725 (LEADER generated), School
Attendance/Enrollment Verification, is used to verify
school attendance. The form instructions are on page 2
of the PA 1725.
Part A, is used by the school to verify that a child is “in
regular attendance” or is “not in regular attendance.” If an
initial attendance request is returned to the EW indicating
that a child is “not in regular attendance,” a follow-up
attendance request is centrally mailed by LEADER 20
work days after receipt of the initial attendance request.
The follow-up attendance request can be completed only
when 20+ school days have elapsed following the initial
verification of “not in regular attendance.” The
parent/caretaker relative is responsible for obtaining the
completed form from the school and returning it to the EW
for restoration of aid.
