Assess whether identity proofing exceptions are being abused (c0e39a)

SITUATION A live Public Benefits Recoupment and Policy file in a housing authority with overlapping subsidy households now turns on TANF work-hours that cannot be corroborated after a USDA retailer disqualification packet due Friday. Housing-subsidy fraud investigator should state what that extract proves for whether identity proofing exceptions are being abused.

DECISION Housing-subsidy fraud investigator in a housing authority with overlapping subsidy households must choose Pay or continue / Recoup / Deny / Hold using TANF work-hours that cannot be corroborated after a USDA retailer disqualification packet due Friday.

HYPOTHESES TO TEST 1. A USDA retailer disqualification packet due Friday is noise around an already-controlled Recoupment and Policy process in a housing authority with overlapping subsidy households, given TANF work-hours that cannot be corroborated. 2. A USDA retailer disqualification packet due Friday is the event in TANF work-hours that cannot be corroborated that forces Pay or continue for housing-subsidy fraud investigator under Public Benefits. 3. TANF work-hours that cannot be corroborated shows a one-file miss after a USDA retailer disqualification packet due Friday, not a Recoupment and Policy program failure. 4. TANF work-hours that cannot be corroborated cannot decide identity proofing exceptions are yet after a USDA retailer disqualification packet due Friday; hold is the only Public Benefits close a housing authority with overlapping subsidy households can defend.

ANALYSIS REQUIRED 1. Quantify overpayment if identity proofing exceptions are is wrong. 2. Separate a case-level error from a program-design failure in a housing authority with overlapping subsidy households. 3. Match household facts in TANF work-hours that cannot be corroborated to the rule that pays the benefit. 4. For this Public Benefits Recoupment and Policy file, read TANF work-hours that cannot be corroborated against a USDA retailer disqualification packet due Friday and write the one fact that would move identity proofing exceptions are for housing-subsidy fraud investigator.

RECOMMENDATION Choose Pay or continue / Recoup / Deny / Hold on this Public Benefits / Recoupment and Policy packet (TANF work-hours that cannot be corroborated after a USDA retailer disqualification packet due Friday). If TANF work-hours that cannot be corroborated cannot force a Public Benefits label under Recoupment and Policy, stop. If TANF work-hours that cannot be corroborated after a USDA retailer disqualification packet due Friday cannot support Pay or continue versus Recoup on this Public Benefits Recoupment and Policy close, housing-subsidy fraud investigator must do not pay, recoup, or deny beyond the eligibility record.
