Supplemental NA benefits, as mentioned in the Urgent Bulletin emailed 04/10/2020, have been extended through 09/2021.
 
When issuing supplements on UNAU or processing changes, See the Urgent Bulletin emailed 05/04/2021 and the Urgent Bulletin emailed 07/27/2021.
 
Supplemental benefits are issued when it is discovered that a budgetary unit is entitled to an additional amount of benefits than what have been issued for the current calendar month or a future months.
 
NOTE When a potential under issuance of NA benefits is discovered, review the case file. When the participant is eligible, issue supplemental benefits to the budgetary unit within ten calendar days.
 
Supplemental benefits are issued, in addition to the current month's issuance, in the following situations:
 
●A reported change
●A case read correction
●An appeal remand
●When more CA or NA benefits were recouped by the Office of Accounts Receivable and Collections (OARC) than were owed in an overpayment.
 
NOTE When this occurs, OARC notifies Research and Analysis (R&A) that a supplement is required.
 
All Grant Diversion benefits issued on UNAU, are not considered CA supplements.
 
(See Calculating the Underpayment)
 
NOTE AZTECS recoups ten percent of the supplement against an overpayment claim and any remaining balance is paid to the budgetary unit.
