캘리포니아 주 전체 자동 복지 시스템(CalSAWS) 웨이브 1 마이그레이션
On October 31, 2022, Placer and Yolo counties will join the 40 counties that comprise the CalSAWS consortium. California’s 58 counties are currently split between two eligibility and enrollment systems: California Work Opportunity and Responsibility to Kids Information Network (CalWIN) and CalSAWS, with the expectation that the 18 CalWIN counties will migrate into CalSAWS by December 31, 2023. Placer and Yolo counties will be the first wave of CalWIN counties migrating to CalSAWS. Placer and Yolo counties will also migrate to the statewide application portal, BenefitsCal— residents of these counties can apply for benefits and create an account with BenefitsCal starting on October 31.
마이그레이션을 완료하기 위해 10월 27일 목요일 오후 6시부터 10월 31일 월요일 오전 8시에 Placer 및 Yolo 카운티가 CalSAWS에서 활성화될 때까지 이 두 카운티에서는 CalWIN을 사용할 수 없게 됩니다. 10월 28일(금) 가동 중단 기간 동안 플레이서 및 욜로 카운티의 사회복지 서비스 사무실은 운영되며 긴급 서비스를 이용할 수 있습니다. CalWIN 카운티는 계속해서 CalWIN 시스템 환경에 액세스할 수 있으므로 카운티 직원은 현재 사례 정보를 확인하고 Medi-Cal 혜택 신분증을 발급할 수 있습니다. 또한 CalWIN 웹 포털(MyBenefitsCalWIN)은 신청자와 수혜자가 카운티 웹사이트 및 Covered California로 이동하여 혜택을 신청할 수 있도록 안내합니다. 다른 16개 CalWIN 카운티에는 중단이 없어야 합니다.
