A new issue code has been created pursuant to requirements of the settlement in the Matter of Meachem v. Wing. Issue Code 930 ("Proof of Mailing for Client Claims of Non-Receipt of HRA Mailing"), is to be used as follows:
Any request for a hearing where the appellant claims non-receipt or untimely receipt of an appointment letter or other written communication from the New York City Human Resources Administration (HRA) requiring some action by the applicant/ recipient, such as an agency request for documents, including questionnaires, a notice to appear for an employment-related interview or recertification interview, etc. requires that the additional issue code 930 be added as a tracking code.
Inasmuch as 930 will be used solely as a tracking code, the Action Code should be noted as "INAD" and the Aid Status Code should be "NA."
Use of this code will greatly assist in the accurate tracking of these cases as required by the Meachem litigation.
