Purpose

Form 4800-DA, 4800-D Addendum, serves as a document for staff or other program staff to record additional names of other participants to be entered in the Texas Integrated Eligibility Redesign System (TIERS) Fair Hearing system. These are the names of additional staff or individuals outside the program or agency area who are to be notified of the date and time of a hearing.

Procedure

When to Prepare

The program representative prepares Form 4800-DA in conjunction with Form 4800-D, Fair Hearing Request Summary, when there are more than three other participants who require notification of the date and time of a hearing.

Transmittal and Copies

The program representative sends Form 4800-DA with Form 4800-D to the designated data entry representative (DER) for the program area. For programs with direct access to the TIERS Fair Hearings and Appeals system, the information may be entered directly. Send one copy to the program area supervisor.

Form Retention

Retain a copy of Form 4800-DA for the case record file.
