Cash and FS benefits are issued based on established monthly mailing schedules. The schedule number is the same as the group number in Item 1 of Form 552. A monthly SCHEDULE OF AUTHORIZATION DUE DATES AND AVAILABILITY DATES is used to determine the terminal entry cut-off dates and mailing dates.

For Class I and II offices, enter 05 in the group number. In Class III, IV, and V offices, assign a group number to cash and FS only (Category 08) cases based on the first 2 letters of the payee's last name.

Put FS only migrant cases in Group 01.
