The effective begin date for TANF transitional is the first day of the month following the TANF case closure date. The effective begin date must be equal to or before the application date. The effective begin date should be when the TANF transitional period started, which might be prior to the application date. For example, if TANF ends July 31, 2011 and Transitional TANF starts August 1, 2011, and the application is received September 15, 2011, then on the other in state benefits page, the effective begin date for the Transitional TANF benefit should be August 1, 2011 and the end date should be July 31, 2012. The end date is enabled for the Transitional TANF benefit type and should be entered. The VaCMS uses the end date to trigger an alert to the worker 90 days before the end date to let the worker know that the TANF transitional is ending. |
