Agency revising TMAC financial reporting; July direct-certification SNAP file available
Summary
Compliance manager Randa Mead said TMAC financial-report functionality is being updated (3- and 6-month average calculations for excess-balance determinations) and confirmed the July direct-certification file (SNAP/TANF) is available in TMAC, noting files no longer include Social Security numbers.
Randa Mead told participants that TMAC's financial-reporting feature is being revised to calculate both three-month and six-month average operating expenses to determine excess balances; as a result, the financial report is not yet open, though staff still expect an October 1 due date for 2526 financial submissions.
She also said the direct-certification file the agency receives from DHS (SNAP and TANF records) will no longer include Social Security numbers but that file layouts remained unchanged so districts’ matching processes should not be affected. Mead confirmed the large July SNAP file is available for download in TMAC but cautioned districts to re-download at month-end because records are added weekly.
Mead asked districts to prepare documentation for financial reports despite the tool still being revised and said staff will discuss the three- vs six-month calculation further at S&P Academy.
