The individual may reapply at any of that agency’s office locations. However, the agency must enroll the applicant in the W-2 Eligibility and Work Program offices for the county in which the applicant now resides.

If a participant relocates into or out of Milwaukee or between BOS W-2 agencies, the participant’s placement cannot transfer.

The outgoing agency must:

1.             End-date the placement on the CWW W-2 Placements page to generate the final payment for activities completed during the last participation period;

2.             End the EP; and

3.             Disenroll the case in WWP.

The incoming agency must:

1.             Treat the individual as an applicant (see 1.4.4); and

2.             Consider the individual’s past W-2 experience, including prior placements, when deciding on services for the individual.

If a participant in a CMF or CMF+ placement relocates into or out of Milwaukee or between BOS W-2 agencies boundaries, the participant cannot be enrolled into the incoming agency, nor may the participant remain in an open placement with the current W-2 agency.

If an individual enrolled in a CMF or CMF+ placement loses the employment that led to the CMF or CMF+ placement while enrolled in W-2, the individual may reapply for W-2 in the county where the individual has relocated.
