SUCCESS System for for the the Uniform Uniform System Calculation and and Calculation Consolidation Consolidation of Economic Economic Support Support of Services Services SUCCESS is the Department of Family and Children Services (DFCS) Eligibility System which is used in every Georgia county to support the work of DFCS Eligibility Caseworkers in the application of TANF, Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), Medicaid and Refugee Assistance programs. SUCCESS is “Online” – Workers use up to 50 data-entry screens to guide them through the interview process as they interact directly with their client. SUCCESS is “Real Time” – Updates to Case/Client information are made instantly. Workers are able to determine eligibility and benefit amounts at the end of the interview or data entry process. SUCCESS uses some “Batch Processing” to send notices, issue benefits, update some client income via interface files (i.e. Child Support, SSI, etc.). SUCCESS Inquiry was designed to give Non-DFCS personnel access to limited DFCS case/client information. It is made up of 9 Inquiry Screens (and CRS). SUCCESS Inquiry queries against current SUCCESS data tables giving the user the most upto-date information on DFCS Cases/Clients. SUCCESS Inquiry secures its data by requiring a RACF-ID to access its information.

CEP – Community Eligibility Provision Facts – Talking Points • • • • •

• •

• • • •

•

• •

CEP is part of the Healthy Hunger Free Kids Act All students receive breakfast and lunch at no cost! CEP schools do not/cannot collect F/R meal applications. CEP eligible schools have at least 40% identified student eligible. 40% identified student eligibles can be calculated by individual school, groups of schools or the entire district. Groups of schools can be any combination of schools in the district. Identified student eligibles are based on April 1 data for the previous SY. Identified Student Eligibles are all students approved eligible without an application. Maintain documentation of extended DC’s, migrant list, homeless list, runaways, Head Start, Pre-K Even Start, and foster w/o application. Identified student percentage (ISP) is the identified student eligibles in any group divided by the enrollment of that group. ISP X 1.6 multiplier (factor) is the free reimbursement rate for this 4 year cycle. (2014-17) 1.6 Multiplier (factor) may change with each new 4 year cycle in a range of 1.3 to 1.6. Each year during the cycle the district can reestablish the district’s identified student eligibles. 1.) If it decreases it can remain the original calculation. 2.) If the number increases to the benefit of the system the percentages can be changed and may begin a new four year cycle. A system may opt out of CEP at any time notifying the state. They must plan for and allow enough time to reestablish traditional counting and claiming procedures, giving the community enough notice and time to adjust. Complete Attachment G Section “Community Eligibility Option” for the current SY of CEP. After the 4 year cycle if the claiming percentages decrease between 30 – 39.99% there is a possibility of a “grace year.”

Additional Instructions for Reporting the FNS-742

Section 1

For additional guidance on verification requirements and procedures, refer to the Eligibility Manual (http://www.fns.usda.gov/cnd/guidance/EliMan.pdf). Enter the State agency name, SFA name, SFA ID, SFA city, SFA zip code for each SFA with schools and/or RCCIs operating the NSLP and/or SBP. Select if the SFA overall is a public or a private/nonprofit entity and enter the school year for which the report is completed. Include schools and/or RCCIs and the enrolled students only once if operating both NSLP and SBP. All SFAs with schools or RCCIs operating the NSLP and/or SBP must complete this section regardless if all schools are exempt from verification. Report schools or institutions operating the NSLP and/or SBP and students with access to the NSLP and/or SBP as of the last operating day in October. 1-1A & B: TOTAL number of schools (not including RCCIs) operating the NSLP and/or SBP and the TOTAL number of enrolled students with access to the NSLP and/or SBP. 1-2A & B: TOTAL number of RCCIs operating the NSLP and/or SBP and the TOTAL number of enrolled students with access to the NSLP and/or SBP in RCCIs. 1-2aA & 1-2aB: Of the RCCIs reported in 1-2A; enter the number of RCCIs with DAY students and ONLY the DAY students with access to the NSLP and/or SBP in RCCIs (day students are those students NOT institutionalized and eligibility is determined individually by application or direct certification as applicable). 1-2bA & 1-2bB: Of the RCCIs reported in 1-2A; enter the number of RCCIs with NO day students and the TOTAL number of institutionalized students.

Section 2

All SFAs with some or all schools and/or RCCIs operating under an alternative provision must complete this section. For RCCIs operating an alternate provision, include both day and residential students. Report students with access to the NSLP and/or SBP as of the last operating day in October. 2-1 through 2-4 should be reported only if the school operates alternate provisions for BOTH programs resulting in no collection of applications for the school. Schools operating Provision 2/3 for only one program and collecting household applications for the other program should report applicable provision data in 2-5. 2-1A & B: BASE year is when certification procedures are conducted. 2-2A & B: NON BASE year is when no certification procedures are conducted. 2-2aB, 2-2bB: Multiply the most recent base year FREE percentage by the enrollment reported in 2-2B to determine 2-2aB. Multiply the base year REDUCED PRICE percentage by the enrollment reported in 2-2B to determine 2-2bB. 2-3A & B: Number of schools operating the Community Eligibility Option and the number of enrolled students in the schools with access to the NSLP and/or SBP. 2-4A & B: Other alternatives include Provision 1 and universal meal service through census data or socioeconomic surveys. 2-5A & B: Enter the number of schools and/or RCCIs and students enrolled operating an alternate provision for ONLY SBP or ONLY NSLP. Include schools/RCCIs operating in both a base year and non base year.

Section 3

All SFAs must complete this section. If all schools and/or RCCIs in the SFA were not required to perform direct certification with SNAP, then check box 3-1. Direct certification is the process by which the student is certified eligible based on documentation received directly from the applicable program (e.g. SNAP or TANF agency). This process eliminates the need for the household to submit an application. Report students approved FREE eligible as of the last operating day in October. 3-2B: Include students directly certified with SNAP. If a student is directly certified with SNAP as well as with another program (e.g. TANF/eligible homeless), include the student in this SNAP count (3-2B). Also include in this count any student in the SFA deemed eligible based on extended categorical eligibility via an eligible student in the primary household who has been directly certified with SNAP. DO NOT include SNAP letter method certifications in this SNAP count, report these in 3-4B below. (SNAP letter method certifications are when the family submits a letter from the SNAP agency to document receipt of SNAP benefits. This is no longer considered to be direct certification.) 3-3B: Include students directly certified through programs other than SNAP. Include students in the SFA deemed eligible due to extended categorical eligibility via an eligible student in the primary household directly certified with TANF or FDPIR. DO NOT include SNAP students already reported in 3-2 or to be reported in 3-4 as certified categorically through SNAP letter method. 3-4B: Include ONLY students certified as categorically FREE eligible based on a letter submitted by family from the SNAP agency. Include students in the SFA deemed eligible due to extended categorical eligibility via an eligible student in the primary household certified as FREE categorically eligible with the letter method with SNAP.

Section 4

NOTE: The sum of the students reported in 1-2aB and 1-2bB will NOT equal the total in 1-2B.

All SFAs with schools and/or RCCIs collecting individual household applications must report this section, including schools and/or RCCIs in a Provision 2/3 base year. Report number of applications (A) approved as of October 1st. Report number of students (B) as of the last operating day in October. 4-1A & B: Number of applications approved FREE eligible based on documentation submitted on an application (i.e. case number for SNAP, TANF, or FDPIR on an application) on file as of October 1st and the number of students as of the last operating day in October approved FREE eligible based on documentation submitted on an application (i.e. case number for SNAP, TANF, or FDPIR on an application). Include students in the SFA deemed eligible due to extended categorical eligibility via an eligible student in the primary household categorically FREE eligible with SNAP, TANF, or FDPIR. 4-2A & B: Number of applications approved FREE eligible based on income information submitted by the household on file as of October 1st and the number of students as of the last operating day in October approved FREE eligible based on income information submitted by the household. 4-3A & B: Number of applications approved REDUCED PRICE eligible based on income information submitted by the household on file as of October 1st and the number of students as of last operating day in October approved REDUCED PRICE eligible based on income information submitted by the household. T-1: Enter the total number of students reported as FREE eligible. (3-2B) + (3-3B) + (3-4B) + (4-1B) + (4-2B) + (2-2aB, if applicable)

T-2: Enter the total number of students reported as REDUCED PRICE eligible. (4-3B) + (2-2bB, if applicable)

If ALL schools and/or RCCIs in the SFA are exempt from verification activities, check box 5-1 and no further reporting is required in Section 5. Verification activities are NOT required for:

• schools/RCCIs in which all children have been certified under direct certification procedures including children documented as eligible foster, migrant, runaway or homeless children;

• RCCIs which do not have day students; • schools electing the Community Eligibility Option; • schools/RCCIs in which FNS has approved universal meal service through census data or using socioeconomic surveys; e.g., special cash assistance claims based on economic statistics regarding per capita income (Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands);

• schools participating only in the Special Milk Program; • schools in which all children are served with no separate charge for food service and no special cash assistance is claimed, (i.e., nonpricing programs claiming only the paid rate of reimbursement);

• all schools are Provision 2/3 schools in a non base year; • schools which do not have any free or reduced price eligible students; • other FNS determined exemptions on a case-by-case basis. 5-2: Indicate whether verification was performed and completed by the deadline of November 15th. If verification was completed after the deadline, report the remainder of Section 5 as applicable. 5-3: If verification was completed, check the type of verification process used to comply with the requirements of 7 CFR 245.6a. Please note the qualification requirements in 7 CFR 245.6a(d) must be met to use the two alternate sample sizes.

• Standard: Verify 3% or 3,000 of approved applications, whichever is less, selected from error-prone applications on file as of October 1st.

Section 5

If there are not enough error-prone applications, LEAs must select at random additional applications to complete sample size.

• Alternate one: Verify 3% or 3,000, whichever is less, of all randomly selected approved applications on file as of October 1st. • Alternate two: Verify the lesser of 1% or 1,000 approved applications as of October 1st selected from error prone applications PLUS the lesser of one-half of one percent or 500 applications approved as of October 1st that provided a case number in lieu of income.

5-4: Error-prone applications are household applications approved as of October 1st indicating monthly income within $100 of the monthly limit or annual income within $1,200 of the annual limit of the applicable income eligibility guidelines. 5-5: Enter the total number of applications initially selected for the verification process as indicated in 5-3. 5-6: Check if direct verification was not conducted in the SFA (not one school in the SFA conducted direct verification). Direct verification is using records from public agencies to verify income and/or program participation. 5-7A & B: Only report applications and students if FREE and/or REDUCED PRICE eligibility is confirmed through direct verification. Report applications and students not directly verified in the appropriate category in 5-8. 5-8: For the purposes of this report verification is complete:

• for households whose eligibility does not change as of the date of the confirmation of eligibility by a reviewing official; • for households which do not appeal a change in eligibility as of the first operating day following the last date for filing an appeal in response to a notice of change in eligibility;

• for households which appeal a change in eligibility as of the first operating day following a decision by the hearing official. Responded: The household provided sufficient documentation. This includes verbal or written notification that the household declines benefits. NOT Responded: The household did not provide sufficient documentation or the household did not provide a response. A1, B1, & C1: Number of applications with no change and the number of students on these applications. A2 & B2: Number of applications changed to REDUCED PRICE based on sufficient documentation provided by the household and the number of students on the applications. C2: Number of applications changed to FREE based on sufficient documentation provided by the household and the number of students on the applications. A3, B3, & C3: Number of applications for which the eligibility was changed to PAID based on sufficient documentation by the household and the number of students on the applications. A4, B4, & C4: Number of applications for which the eligibility was changed to PAID because documentation necessary to complete the verification process was NOT provided and the number of students on the applications. The number of applications reported in 5-8 should include both the results of verification from verification process and the results from any applications verified for cause reported in VC-1. VC-1: If applicable in at least one school and/or RCCI, report all applications verified for cause outside of the verification process (7 CFR 245.6a) as of November 15th. Applications verified for cause are NOT considered part of the required sample size. Include the results of verification for cause by original benefit type in the appropriate category in 5-8.

Verification for Cause What is Verification for Cause? Verification for Cause is the process of verifying questionable applications. This is a requirement for Local Education Authorities (LEA’s) as stated in the Eligibility Manual for School Meals:

“The LEA has an obligation to verify all approved applications that may be questionable; that is verification “for cause”. However, such verification efforts cannot delay the approval of applications. If an application is complete and indicates that the child is eligible for free or reduced price benefits, the application must be approved. Only after the determination of eligibility has been made can the LEA begin the verification process.” Verification for Cause is done on a case by case basis, at any time during the school year, when the LEA is aware of additional income or persons in the household. Groups of individuals or categories of individuals cannot be targeted for Verification for Cause. For example, all zero income applications or all employee applications cannot be targeted for verification. See USDA Memo SP132012, dated February 10, 2012. “Apart from the required verification of a specified sample of approved applications, regulations at 7 CFR 245.6a(c) (7) require that an LEA “must verify any questionable application and should, on a case-by-case basis, verify any application for cause …when the [school] is aware of additional income or persons in the household.”… ”Verification for cause must not be used to automatically verify the households of all school district employees whose children are certified for free or reduced price meals.” Under what circumstances verification for cause may be conducted?  

When the LEA is aware of additional income or persons in the household. When available information indicates schools district employees may have misrepresented their incomes on free or reduced price meal applications for their children.

Steps to follow when verifying for cause.

 Approve the application, taking the information “at face value”  Send the Notification of Eligibility letter.  Using prototype verification letters, send a letter to the household explaining that it must submit verification of eligibility information. This letter may accompany the Notification of Eligibility letter.  Follow standard verification procedures in the Eligibility Manual for School Meals to make a determination using the documentation submitted by the household. Send appropriate notice of eligibility or notice of adverse action.  If the household submits another application after they have been terminated in the Verification for Cause process, they must submit proof of eligibility at the time they reapply.

Common Mistakes Made When Approving Applications INDICATING INCOME AND INCOME SOURCES

Each household must provide the total amount of their current income. Income must be identified with the individual who received it, and the source of the income (wages, Social Security, etc.). Each household member who does not have income must also be identified and may have an indication of zero income on the application.

Current Income/Conversions For the purposes of certification of eligibility for free or reduced price meals or free milk, the household must provide their current income which is based on the most recent information available. This may be for the current month, the amount projected for the month for which the application is filled out or for the month prior to application. If the household’s current income is not a reflection of income that will be available over the school year, the household should contact the LEA for assistance. The LEA would determine the amount and frequency of income available during the school year for households. If a household provided only annual income, the LEA must ensure that this is an accurate reflection of their current income. (Excerpt from, “The USDA August 2014 “Eligibility Manual for School Meals – Current Income/Conversions”, page 32)

Common Application Approval Mistakes

Whenever an application is missing information, ex., no income listed, frequency is not indicated or if the income frequency is annual, the household must be contacted and any changes to the application must be documented. Application benefit eligibility determination errors resulting from the following: • • • •

Applications with missing information — these applications are considered incomplete Incorrectly categorized certifications Benefit issuance errors Failure to update a change in status resulting from verification (pg. 43, August 2014 Eligibility Manual) Georgia Department of Education June 2015 • Page 1 of 2 “USDA is an equal opportunity provider and employer.”

•

Errors Due to Missing Information on Free and Reduced-Price Application, including: o Signature of an adult household member o Last four digits of a required social security number (Note: Applications that indicate “none” for the adult household member are not considered an error) o Income amount, income source, or income frequency o Names of all household members, including children who are requesting benefits o SNAP, TANF, or FDPIR case number as applicable.

Maintaining Documentation for Students Approved by Extended Eligibility

Extended Eligibility is the process which allows a student living in the household with a directly certified (DC) student to be added to the Direct Certification (DC) List. When a student is identified as being in the same household as a directly certified student, the student should be added to the Direct Certification List, and documentation for extending eligibility should be maintained. The following procedure may be used to maintain the documentation for Extended Eligibility DC students: 1. Set up a filing system to maintain documentation for DC students, including those who are DC by Extended Eligibility. Include in the Direct Certification files: A. Printed copies of the DC list downloaded from GaDOE. B. Print screens for DC students found on the GO screen and Lookup Screen C. Documentation for any student who is DC by Extended Eligibility. Examples of documentation for Extended Eligibility are: 1. An application from a DC family which lists students who are DC along with those who are Extended Eligibility DC students 2. Printed pages from the student information system which shows family members in the file 3. A copy of the DC parent notification letter which has been returned listing additional students in the household D. Maintain the documentation in the same order as Extended Eligibility DC students are listed on the eligibility roster. 2. On the eligibility roster, if possible, indicate extended eligibility students by “EE”. 3. Any applications for students who are directly certified should be labeled “DC” at the top of the form and removed from the active application file. If the application can be used to document extended eligibility, it remains with the DC documentation. Otherwise, it can be maintained in a separate file.

Georgia Department of Education June 2015 • Page 1 of 1 “USDA is an equal opportunity provider and employer.”

Nontraditional School Best Practices for Direct Certification  Begin Direct Certification (DC) matching before free and reduced applications are processed, certifying as many students as possible using DC.  When the initial DC file becomes available in School Nutrition Online (SNO), run a comparison of the “Matched” list with student data in your system. Use GTID numbers and first and last names as identifiers. The match may be done by hand or electronically, depending on the size of the school system.  Run a comparison of the “unmatched listing” against your student data using at least two identifiers, including GTID number, first and last name, birth date or address. If your school does not have the software capability to run a “Matched” or “unmatched” list, or if this is too time consuming, use the GO screen or Statewide Lookup screen to find students.

 Prior to the start of school, identify new pre-k and kindergarten students on the DC lists, DC statewide Lookup screen in SNO or the GO Screen. Or, attend pre-k or kindergarten orientation and provide a form which allows the parent to identify siblings already in school. That may aid in extending eligibility based on an older sibling’s DC status. An example of a form, Pre-K and Kindergarten Parent Information is available in your resources.  Run a listing from your free and reduced software system of all students you have certified as DC, or, if you don’t have that capability develop a listing that includes each of your students with their free and reduced price status. Troubleshoot these students to determine the reason for those that are not DC and resolve as many as possible. Possible reasons for students not being matched: Variations in the name Incorrect SS# (either in DHS or LEA records) Full SS# no longer shown-only last 4 digits. Student is withdrawn from system Student is home schooled or attends another school system If your software system does not have the capability to run a listing of directly certified students, print a roster of your students certified as free and reduced. Look them up on the GO screen or Statewide Lookup Screen. Highlight and mark on the roster the DC students that you can locate. Print the identifying information from the GO screen or DC lookup screen and attach that information to the roster.

Nontraditional School Best Practices for Direct Certification  Develop DC Parent Notification Letters for each household and mail or deliver them to the household. Be sure letters contain statements at the bottom of the letter with the option for the parent to decline DC or to add additional students in the household.  Note: DC Parent Notification Letters are required.  Distribute DC Parent Notification Letters as early as possible, preferably before applications are distributed.  When DC Parent Notification Letters are returned with additional students listed, identify the additional students on the roster or student listing as extended eligibility and maintain the letter as documentation. Maintain the letters with the student listing or roster that you printed with DC information highlighted.  Maintain a record of students approved by extended eligibility when a parent calls to inform the SFA of additional students in a household with a DC student. Whatever you use to document the phone call—a log, the original application, notes in a file— the date and the name or initials of the staff person taking the call must be included in the documentation.  Use applications received, with a DC student listed on it, to directly certify other students in the household who are not matched. Maintain the application with DC records (your student listing or roster) as documentation.  Request reports from the student information system that can identify students living at the same address or in the same household to extend eligibility of DC students. Maintain screen prints of the student information database information as documentation.  After school has started and most late enrollees are in school, work to identify more students to see if there are more DC students. Information in the GO screen is updated “real time” on is updated at least monthly in the Statewide Lookup database.  After most of the applications are processed, use the Statewide Lookup or GO screen to look up the students that were certified as reduced price.  As the first 30 operating days come to an end, identify students who received meal benefits last school year and have not completed an application for the current year. Look up these students on the statewide lookup or GO screen.  Using the GO screen or Statewide Lookup screen; try to directly certify students who are approved categorically free by SNAP or TANF application. Print screens to maintain as Georgia Department of Education “USDA is an equal opportunity provider and employer.”

Nontraditional School Best Practices for Direct Certification documentation. It benefits the SFA to certify as many students by DC as possible prior to verification to reduce the number in the verification pool.  Use the GO screen or Statewide Lookup screen to find paying students, especially those who charge frequently, who are eligible to be directly certified.  Place reminders on your calendar to check the DC screen in SNO monthly for updated files, and match updates to the student listing in the free and reduced software.  As the year progresses, use the DC updates from the state department, Statewide Lookup screen or GO screen to look up students who are new to the system. 
