All cases that received a benefit for April 2020 and did not already receive the maximum benefit amount will receive the Emergency Allotment. The Emergency Allotment is the difference between the maximum benefit for the household size and what they were originally eligible for.

 

The vast majority of cases will run through Batch EDBC using a run reason of Public Health Emergency. This run reason establishes a one-month EDBC to allow the one-time supplement to be issued but keeps the high dated EDBC as previously calculated. This run reason will also serve as a way to track the cases within KEES.

 

There are some situations that cannot be processed by Batch EDBC and will require a worker to use the Public Health Emergency run reason to run EDBC. This run reason should only be used by designated staff members who are working the identified cases. These cases will be prioritized by alphabetical order to align with the staggered issuance approach. These households will receive their benefits the day after the case is processed with the Public Health Emergency run reason for April 2020.
