NOTE: Notify any Department staff who are involved in the case of the deletion from the benefit unit.
To delete a person from a TANF case due to receipt of SSI, register an AABD Medical or Assist case (either 91, 92, 93, or 94) for the same person. Determine their eligibility effective for the same month as the TANF deletion action. If income/assets exceed the standard for AABD Medical, enroll the case for spenddown.
When determining AABD Medical eligibility, copy the application and required verifications from the TANF case and use them in the AABD Medical case record. To register the AABD Medical, Assist, or Moms and Babies application see WAG 02-05-02. See WAG 25-08-02-b for the approval process.
NOTE: If the deletion requires that a change in category is also needed in addition to the procedures in this section, see WAG 18-03-12.
When deleting the caretaker relative from the benefit unit with no change of payee and when only FS are authorized for them, line out the caretaker relative being changed and reenter the caretaker relative in Item 60. Complete Form 552:
