The following methodology is used to distribute the causal county sanction amount(s).
(1)Determine which county(s) failed to deposit and report the TANF portion of county mandated share.
(2)ODHS notifies the board of county commissioners of the causal counties of an increase in TANF portion of county mandated share for the following SFY. This increased amount is in addition to any other mandated share or local obligation that may occur during the identified year.
ODHS recovers needed TANF portion of county mandated share through the quarterly PA fund reconciliation process ( APM.7350. ) as a TANF audit finding.
