APPENDIX C INCOME AND ELIGIBILITY VERIFICATION SYSTEM (IEVS)
IEVS is an exchange of information with State and Federal agencies to verify income and information needed to determine eligibility. The agencies include the Department of Employment (DOE), the Social Security Administration (SSA), and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). IEVS information available before eligibility is determined must be used. Case actions, based on IEVS information received after approval, must be completed within forty-five (45) days from the date the IEVS information is received. Information received from SSA, and Unemployment Insurance Benefits information from DOE, can be used without further proof. Information received from IRS or wage file information from DOE must be verified through other sources, before it can be used.
