The applicant is ineligible for Job Corps due to the review of new information that the AC could not have reasonably known at the time the applicant was deemed eligible. Please refer to Exhibit 1-1 of Chapter 1 of the PRH and identify the specific EAR(s) that you believe the applicant no longer meets.
Note: If you believe the applicant is no longer eligible because of disability status related to EAR “A” (age) or EAR “D” (low income), then please complete the Center Recommendation of Denial Form – Health Care Needs, Direct Threat or Disability Status instead of this form.

APPLICATION OUTCOMES
Reason Explanation
Enroll Center accepts and enrolls applicant
Withdrawal Applicant requests application to be withdrawn
Clinical staff are unable to reach applicant to complete the clinical interview or the accommodation
process, when applicable
Recommend Denial
Applicant’s health care needs exceed those of basic care
Applicant’s health care needs exceed those of basic care but may
possibly be met at a center closer to applicant’s home area resources
Applicant poses a direct threat to self or others
Applicant is no longer eligible due to disclosure of new information that the AC could not have reasonably known at the time eligibility was certified
Should be a fairly rare occurrence

DO YOU REMEMBER?

▪ What position used to be very involved in file review pre 2011 changes but now only has limited involvement in the rare instances of a new information review?
▪ Why?
Center Standards Officer (CSO) or Student Personnel
Office (SPO)
WITHDRAWAL PROCESS DURING CENTER FILE REVIEW – NO APPLICATION DISPOSITION RECOMMENDED YET
▪ There are two occasions when the center may send an applicant file back to OA to process as a withdrawal.• Applicant requests withdrawal.
o Document request and return file to the Outreach and Admissions if a recommendation of denial has not yet been made.
• The center is unable to reach the applicant to conduct clinically-related interviews.o Document the attempts to contact including collaborations efforts with OA
and return the file to OA.
29
WITHDRAWAL PROCESS DURING CENTER FILE REVIEW – FILE IS IN REGIONAL REVIEW
▪ If the file has been returned to the center to complete any portion of the applicant file review process and the center is unable to reach the applicant, even with the AC’s assistance, then the file must be returned to the person/office that sent the center the file and not back to OA• If file is returned to the center to complete a process issue, then
return it to Debbie Jones, Administrative File Review Coordinator, directly
• If the file is returned to the center to complete a clinically-related issue, then return the file to your respective Regional Office
30
31
WITHDRAWAL PROCESS RED FLAGS
Insufficient Documentation
If the center has requested additional documentation about an applicant and it does not receive that information, the center must make a decision on the information that is available to it. The applicant file cannot be returned to OA to process as a withdrawal.
Documentation to Support Records Log
If log says that that the AC requested a file to be returned, then print out the email and maintain with the log documentation. If requested via phone, best practice would be to request an email but document date and circumstances as to why AC was requesting file to be returned.
Center has submitted no files for
recommendation of denial over an
extended period of time
What are some of the top reasons files are
returned to centers to complete some missing
portion of the file review process?
32
APPLICANT FILE REVIEW PITFALLS & RED FLAGS
▪ Reasonable Accommodation• Failed to complete the interactive process when there is documentation
of disability in the file even though the applicant did not specifically request accommodations
• Accommodation considerations within the assessment process that are not based upon the applicant’s symptoms and behaviors that are presenting the barriers to enrollment; instead, the focus is on testing or other IEP documented accommodations related to participation in the program, if enrolled.
• Suggesting extreme accommodations to the applicant during the interactive process
33
APPLICANT FILE REVIEW PITFALLS & RED FLAGS
▪ Assessments• Submitting more than one assessment, both health care needs and
direct threat, when recommending denial
• Considering case management supports as accommodations
• File documentation contains potentially conflicting clinical information that has not been addressed
34
REGIONAL REVIEW OF APPLICANT FILESPRH 1: 1.5, APPENDIX 108
REGIONAL REVIEW PROCESS FOR CENTER RECOMMENDATIONS OF DENIAL – APPENDIX 108
▪ All applicant files received in the Regional Office are received and logged in and the “Regional Office File Review Process Form” is initiated by the Regional Office File Review Coordinator and attached to the file for tracking and monitoring purposes.
RECOMMENDATION OF DENIAL – DIRECT THREAT OR HEALTH CARE NEEDS
▪ Step 1: Applicant file is received at Regional Office and logged into tracking log.
▪ Step 2: The Regional Office File Review Coordinator reviews the center recommendation of denial form to determine the type of denial. • If the center has completed the “Center
Recommendation of Denial Form Based upon Health Care Needs, Direct Threat Assessment, or Disability Status,” the Regional Office File Review Coordinator
forwards the file to the Regional Administrative File Review Coordinator to complete an administrative (i.e., process) review of the file.
▪ Step 3: If incomplete, the Regional Administrative File Review Coordinator returns the file to the center with guidance and instruction as to what part(s) of the process must be completed and/or what documentation is needed.
RECOMMENDATIONS OF DENIAL – DIRECT THREAT OR HEALTH CARE NEEDS
▪ Step 4: The Regional Administrative File Review Coordinator forwards the file to the appropriate RHS(s) for a clinical review (i.e., mental health, medical, dental, TEAP).
▪ Step 5: The RHS documents his or her support or disagreement with the center’s recommendation, and the file is submitted to the Regional Director for a final determination.
▪ Step 6: The Regional Director, or
designee makes a final decision on application.• If supports the center’s recommendation
for denial, a written decision is completed and issued to the applicant with notification of the application outcome to both the AC and the Center. The AC provides the appropriate referral information to the applicant.
• If rejects a denial recommendation, the applicant’s file is returned to the center for the applicant’s enrollment.
RECOMMENDATIONS OF DENIAL – RECOMMEND ALTERNATE CENTER
▪ Step 1:The Regional Director or designee reviews the recommendations of the RHS regarding a center’s recommendation of denial stating that an applicant’s health care needs can be met in Job Corps but requires that the applicant be assigned to a center closer to the necessary supports and services.
▪ Step 2: If the RHS concurs with the center’s recommendation and the Regional Director or designee concurs, the Regional Office forwards this file back to the AC for assignment to an alternate center.
▪ The Regional File Review Coordinator ensures that the following documents are included with the applicant’s file:
• The Health Care Needs Assessment completed by the previous center which should be stored in the “Medical” information envelope. This assessment is included for the alternate center’s clinical staff to review.
• The “Referral to an Alternate Center Form” which is completed by the RHS and guides the AC in selecting an appropriate alternate center to consider.
▪ The original center is notified that the Regional Office has upheld their recommendation.
▪ If the Regional Director or designee overturns the center’s recommendation, the AC and the center are notified and the center directed to enroll the applicant and the review process ends.
RECOMMENDATIONS OF DENIAL – RECOMMEND ALTERNATE CENTER
▪ Step 3: The AC reviews the “Referral to an Alternate Center Form” and contacts the applicant to discuss and determine which alternate center the applicant is going to be conditionally enrolled.
▪ Step 4: The AC forwards the applicant file along with the information identified in Step 2 of this section to the alternate center.
▪ Step 5: The alternate center completes a clinical assessment to determine if the center can meet the applicant’s health care needs and to assess the applicant’s current stability.
• If the center finds that it can meet the health care needs of the applicant at their location, the center schedules the applicant for enrollment.
• If the alternate center believes that the applicant’s health care needs exceed those of basic care even with the access to local supports and services, then the center must complete its own Health Care Needs Assessment and submits the file to the Regional Office for review.
RECOMMENDATIONS OF DENIAL – RECOMMEND ALTERNATE CENTER
▪ Step 6: The Regional Office logs receipt of the file and forwards it to the RHS who conducted the original review of the previous center’s recommendation to consider an alternate center.
▪ Step 7: The Regional Director or designee makes a final decision on the application.• If the RHS recommends overturning the
alternate center’s recommendation of denial and the Regional Director, or his or her designee, concurs, then the AC and the center are notified and the center directed to enroll the applicant.
• If the Regional Director, or designee concurs, a written decision regarding the recommendation
of denial is completed and issued to the applicant with notification of the application outcome to both the AC and the center. The AC provides the appropriate referral information to the applicant.
RECOMMENDATIONS OF DENIAL – NEW INFORMATION
▪ Step 1: The Regional Office receives the applicant file that has been recommended for denial and logs it into the Regional Office tracking log.
▪ Step 2: The Regional Office File Review Coordinator reviews the center recommendation of denial form to determine the type of denial. If the center has completed the “Center Recommendation of Denial Form Based upon New Information,” the Regional Office File Review Coordinator forwards the file to the Regional Office staff person
or persons designated by the Regional Director to complete the review of the file.
▪ Step 3: If the center has not provided all the required information or documentation, the Regional Office staff person contacts the center and obtains the missing information.
RECOMMENDATIONS OF DENIAL – NEW INFORMATION
▪ Step 4: The Regional Office makes a determination on the recommendation. • If the determination is to overturn the
recommendation of denial, the applicant’s file is returned to the center with guidance to resume the applicant file review process. The center may complete a health care needs or a direct threat assessment, if appropriate, and resubmit the file to the Regional Office for review.
• If the determination is to uphold the center’s recommendation, a written decision regarding the recommendation of denial is completed and issued to the
applicant with notification of the application outcome to both the Admissions Counselor (AC) and the center. The AC provides the appropriate referral information to the applicant.

ACCOMMODATION RECOMMENDATION OF DENIAL
REASONABLENESS CONSIDERATIONS
▪ Job Corps does not deny applicants solely based upon the need to provide accommodation. The RAC would need to • explore funding options,
• identify equally effective alternatives, if possible
• likely offer the opportunity to enroll without the benefit of accommodation

SCENARIOS & REVIEW
NEW INFORMATION REVIEW CASE STUDY▪ Applicant Mallory

56
NEW INFORMATION REVIEW CASE STUDY – APPLICANT MALLORY
Please list the specific question from Exhibit 1-1 which the applicant was determined to be ineligible and list the applicant’s specific response to this question. J. Group Participation & Understanding of Rules
Identify the new information that the AC could not have reasonably known that was the basis for revisiting eligibility (i.e. document name and where the document was located, applicant stated during a specific interview, etc.).* During interview with AC, the mother informed that Mallory had past behavioral problems but did not tell the AC that the behavior problems had resurged just before starting the admissions process.
Summarize your findings. Mother wonders if daughter is trying to sabotage her own admission. Stated that the defiance had increased at home so much so that she and her husband had to hide in their room. Said that the daughter had decided that she could leave home when she wanted to and do what she wanted to and at school was telling teachers off, skipping classes, etc. Given Mallory’s history and recent behavioral issues (the latter of which were unknown to the AC), we do not think that applicant is an appropriate candidate for Job Corps.
LET’S REVIEW
▪ What do you do first in considering this information?• Go to PRH 1: Exhibit 1-1 and find EAR J
57
58
Exhibit 1-1Essential
Admissions Requiremen
ts (EAR)
COULD THIS SCENARIO QUALIFY FOR A NEW INFORMATION REVIEW?
▪ Possibly – it depends• Read through the AC’s information/notes to ensure that s/he was
unaware of the recent behavioral issues. If that was known, then it is not new information and eligibility cannot be revisited.o If it was not known, how do you actually re-assess this particular EAR?
▪ Go back to EAR J and review the requirements and guidance.
▪ Guidance says: “Do you understand that if you are accepted into JC, you will be expected to comply with the rules and regulations of JC? For example, if you live on center, you will have to follow a curfew, there are rules about cell phone use, and you may not be permitted to smoke on center and you may be required to wear a uniform. Knowing this about JC, are you willing to go forward with your application?
59
COULD THIS SCENARIO QUALIFY FOR A NEW INFORMATION REVIEW?
o If applicant responds to the question with a “yes,” then what?▪ Proceed to the next question.
o If applicant responds to question with a “no,” then what?▪ Stop the interview. Complete the paperwork for a recommendation of denial
based upon new information.
• If the AC did have knowledge of the recent behavioral concerns, then what are your options?o Complete either a health care needs or direct threat assessment, if
appropriate.
o If not appropriate, enroll the applicant.
60
APPLICANT ANGELA
▪ Student wears braces and had 1-2 months left in treatment with appointments every 4-8 weeks.

unable to afford her treatment at this time and had not removed her braces and did not wish to do so.
61
APPLICANT ANGELA
