The Fair Hearing Information System (FHIS) issue codes have been revised in conjunction with changes in the categories of assistance and other programmatic changes due to the implementation of Welfare Reform in New York State. Certain codes have been deleted when it was established that they were no longer necessary either from a program or reporting perspective and certain codes were necessarily added. The changes in the Public Assistance, Food Stamp, and Medical Assistance codes are enumerated in this transmittal.
Note: A revised set of all Issue Codes is available for downloading in the file containing OAH Procedures Transmittal 99-16.
