Ensuring that a current Voter Registration Agency Certification form (784) OR the system generated voter registration form on the Eligibility Determination Document (EDD) is completed for each customer age 16 and over. This current documentation must be in the case record; 2. Reviewing the Motor Voter fields on the CARES DEM2 screen for each customer age 16 or over, and updating the CARES DEM2 screen if necessary, to ensure that the Motor Voter fields match the information on the current 784 or EDD forms (the absence of a hard edit in CARES does not eliminate this responsibility); and 3. Documenting in the case narrative, as appropriate, that the Voter Registration Application and DHR 784 forms were mailed or sent to customers 16 or over who were not present at the interview or who are completing their case updates by mail. Note: Although case managers are required to document that a voter registration form or 784 was sent home or mailed to the customer, the customer is not required to return the documents.
