Wisconsin Shares Handbook
Parents must start an approved activity and provide verification that they participated in the approved activity before an Activity Break Period can be granted (see 5.3.5).
Agency workers must not require parents to provide verification of a job ending or of a parent starting a temporary break. Parents are also not required to provide job search logs or other verification of searching for an approved activity during an Approved Activity Search Period (ACTS).
New employment or other approved activity following an ACTS period must be verified. A parent must report when he or she returns to an approved activity following a Temporary Break Period (TBRK), but this does not need to be verified unless the parent is also requesting an increase in authorized hours (see 17.1). An increase in income, change in work hours, or change in child care need following a TBRK period must be reported (see 10.1).
