27-03-00 Item 3: Type Action

Type Action (TA) is the 2-digit code that identifies the action being taken on a case.

Item 3 usually requires the use of an Item 33, Type Action Reason. If a TA has special Item 33 instructions, they are noted under the DIRECTIONS/SPECIAL TARs column.

The most recent TA is printed on the Form 552 returned to the Family Community Resource Center. To make a change, line out the old TA and enter the new TA.
