OLGT 2017-115 - Verification Questions and Answers

Verifications are the use of documentary evidence, collateral contacts, database information, or self-declaration to establish the accuracy of client’s  statements. Verification of eligibility factors play a critical role in the timely and accurate delivery of benefits. To support DTA staff’s comprehension of the verification process, a VC-1 Q and A Online Guide page has been developed that contains examples about what to request, the rationale behind why we request it, and the frequency with which we request verifications.
