| PublicationDate: 6/17/97 Summary: Electronic Corrections & Dependency Status Changes Author: CPS - Central Processing System (CPS) To: EDE Destination Points From: CPS Customer Service RE: Electronic Corrections & Dependency status changes Date: June 17, 1997 Previously, two electronic corrections were required to change an applicant's dependency status from independent to dependent. The first correction changed the dependency status to dependent and added parental data but didn't not apply the parental signature (generating a transaction with a reject 15: no parent signature). The second correction, performed on the transaction generated from the first correction, applied the parental signatures and generated a transaction with an EFC. The CPS was modified on May 28 to change the dependency status in a single electronic correction. Electronic corrections which include all relevant parental data, dependency status question changes, and parental signature codes will generate a new transaction which has a valid EFC. A second electronic correction won't be required to apply the signatures. If you have any questions on this change, please contact CPS Customer Service at 1-800-330-5947, option 8. |
