New Financial Tab Concept
The new financial tab will contain a
series of checkboxes with questions
pertaining to did/does the child receive an
inheritance, SSI, SSA, VA and other
income. When a checkbox is selected, a
monthly and a lump sum amount field
will open for the selected income type.
The user will be required to enter at least
one of the amount fields for the selected
income type.
o
SSI, SSA & VA will be system checked
if the child has a RICHIST trust account
for that benefit type and the monthly
benefit amount will also be system
identified. The user can enter a lump
sum for SSI, SSA or VA. If the user
selects the other income option, they will
be required to enter a text description of
the type of other income.
o
There will also be a checkbox for child
receives no income. At least one
checkbox must be checked to complete
the determination. A total lump sum and
total monthly income will be system
calculated from the entered amounts and
displayed. There will be a radio button
for the ET to then manually select passed
or failed for financial eligibility. Logic
will be added to the window that if failed
is selected, only the Not Eligible status
can be selected for the determination.
1b. Train staff on new procedures
relative to the re-determination
