Cash Assistance Manual Transmittal Letter No. 47
April 28, 2009
TO: All Cash Assistance Manual Holders
FROM: Douglas E. Lumpkin, Director
SUBJECT: 5 Year Rule Review: Written Declaration of Citizenship/Alien Status and the Use of the Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements System

Section 119.032 of the Ohio Revised Code requires a review of all state agency rules within a five-year period. The purpose of this review is to determine whether a rule should be continued without amendment, be amended or be rescinded, taking into consideration the rule's purpose and scope. In addition, the intent of the review is to ensure that rules are clear and concise as written, program requirements are accurate and up-to-date, unnecessary paperwork is eliminated, and, when possible, local agencies are given more flexibility.

This letter transmits changes with the proposed effective date of June 1, 2009. This cover letter includes a summary statement of the policy change.

CHAPTER 1000

5101:1-1-50 Written Declaration of Citizenship/Alien Status and the Use of the Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements System

We have rescinded the former version of this rule and created a new rule that is formatted for better readability. There are no substantive changes to the rule. The rule contains six subject areas:

  • Description and requirements for written declaration of citizenship/alien status;
  • Documents to be provided by an individual who is not a citizen or national of the United States;
  • Methods of verifying the authenticity of the documents provided;
  • Description of the Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (SAVE) system;
  • Effect of SAVE verification on eligibility; and
  • Process for obtaining verification manually.

The revised United States Citizenship and Immigration Services forms are also included in this clearance packet.
