Case Transfers - CalWORKs Employment Services (CWES) Inter-County Transfer (ICT)

At this time the only regulation governing ICTs is for Child Care. Our Agency has chosen not to request an ICT from other counties when a client moves into our county. We will consider the client moving into our county as a new client.

However, we will comply with another county’s ICT request. This may include, such as but not limited to, sending copies of Activity Agreements, supporting documentation, and NOAs, if requested. Requests for OCAT transfers are to be sent to CWES designated staff who has the authority to transfer the OCAT to other counties. The request from the other county may include Santa Clara County to pay supportive services such as transportation/ancillary for client to retain employment. Santa Clara County will pay the supportive services through the end of the ICT period if the other County is not covering the same support service during the same period (refer to CWES PI 2002-4) for a case scenario.
