General Information
I.
Data Reporting Requirements A.
The data comprising the Case Service Report (RSA-911) are mandated by the
Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (the Act), as amended by title IV of the Workforce Innovation
and Opportunity Act (WIOA). Applicable portions of the Act explicitly or implicitly
require the collecting and reporting of specific data elements by State Vocational
Rehabilitation (VR) agencies to the Rehabilitation Services Administration (RSA) for the
VR and Supported Employment (SE) programs. In addition, reporting requirements to
support the performance accountability system under section 116 of title I of WIOA are
applicable to the VR program, as one of the six core programs of the Workforce
Development System.
This revised data collection incorporates new reporting requirements in section 116(b) in
title I of WIOA and sections 101(a)(10) and 607 of the Act, as amended by WIOA. New
requirements under section 101(a)(10) include, for example, the reporting of data on the
number of individuals with open service records and the types of services these
individuals are receiving (including SE services); students with disabilities receiving pre-
employment transition services; and individuals referred to the VR program by one-stop
operators and individuals referred to such one-stop operators by VR agencies.
Section 116 of title I of WIOA requires the reporting of data needed to calculate State
performance on the primary indicators of performance for the core programs. In addition,
States must report information on barriers to employment for participants under each of
the core programs. The data reported by States will be used by both the Departments of
Education and Labor to determine State levels of performance on the primary indicators
that could form the basis for the imposition of financial sanctions against a State, as
described in the WIOA Joint Final Rule. Therefore, it is critical that the data reported be
accurate and submitted timely.
1. Internal Controls
In accordance with 34 CFR 361.12, VR agencies must implement policies and
procedures that ensure the proper and efficient administration of the VR program,
including those necessary to carry out all functions for which the State is
responsible under this program. These methods must include procedures to ensure
accurate data collection and financial accountability. It is incumbent on VR
agencies to establish policies and procedures that ensure the accurate collection,
retention, and timely reporting of all data.
The Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit
Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance) (2 CFR 200.61) defines
internal controls as:
a process, implemented by a non-Federal entity, designed to provide
reasonable assurance regarding the achievement of objectives in the
following categories:
REPORTING MANUAL FOR THE CASE SERVICE REPORT (RSA-911)
2
(a) Effectiveness and efficiency of operations;
(b) Reliability of reporting for internal and external use; and
(c) Compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
VR agencies must establish and maintain internal control processes necessary to
ensure the State’s ability to meet the internal control requirements.
The RSA Commissioner (Commissioner) is responsible for the review and
monitoring of State VR programs to determine whether a State is complying
substantially with the provisions of the VR portion of the Unified or Combined
State Plan. The reliability and validity of data reported in the RSA-911 may be
subject to desk review, monitoring and/or audits. Sections 107(b) and (c) of the
Act specify the remedies available to the Commissioner if a State fails to satisfy
Federal requirements governing the VR program, including requirements related
to data reporting. States that fail to meet the data reporting requirements may also
face potential consequences resulting from audit findings stemming from
Inspector General, State, or Single Audits.
2. Supporting Documentation
The requirements in 34 CFR 361.47 and 34 CFR 361.56, taken together, require
VR agencies to maintain verifying documentation in an individual’s case file,
particularly regarding eligibility determinations, development of the
individualized plan for employment, services provided, and case closure. It is
important to note that the use of an electronic case management system, does not
remove the requirement for the agency to maintain either hard copies or scanned
copies of required supporting documentation in the individual’s service record. An
electronic case management system is merely a data entry process that is
susceptible to data entry errors. Requiring staff to note the source of the
employment data also does not provide documentation necessary to ensure data
validity and reliability. RSA will maintain a table that lists the RSA-911
supporting documentation requirements on RSA’s website at https://rsa.ed.gov.
Case Service Records B.
The case service record documents the application for and/or provision of VR and SE
services to individuals with disabilities, including program outcomes. An individual may
have multiple service records resulting from repeated involvement with the VR and SE
programs. For example, an individual may receive pre-employment transition services
and/or other VR services in secondary school and then years later apply for additional VR
services. These two periods of participation in the VR program would constitute separate
service records.
Opening of Case Service Record: Under this data collection, VR agencies are required to
report data on open service records on a quarterly basis. A service record is opened when
either an individual applies for VR services (Date of Application (IV.A)) or, in the case of
a student with a disability that is solely receiving pre-employment transition services, the
REPORTING MANUAL FOR THE CASE SERVICE REPORT (RSA-911)
3
Start Date of Pre-Employment Transition Services (X.A). These dates initiate the
quarterly reporting requirement for all individuals with an open service record.
Closure of the Case Service Record: The case service record is considered closed when
the individual has a Date of Exit (XVII.A) and all of the required data elements,
including the post-exit data elements when required, have been reported. For a student
with a disability who solely received pre-employment transition services and has not
applied to receive other VR services, the service record is closed when the student is no
longer receiving such services as indicated in the pre-employment transition services data
elements (X.B-E).
Duplicate individual records will not be accepted. For example, records with the same
Social Security Number and Date of Application would be considered a duplicate case
service record. If an individual has multiple exits within the same program year, each exit
must be reported and cannot overlap. For example, if an individual had more than one
Date of Application in a quarter, the Date of Exit (XVII.A) associated with the first
application must be a date before the second Date of Application.
Unique Individuals C.
All service record data submitted for the same reporting period must be associated with a
unique individual. Therefore, each individual receiving services must be assigned a
Unique Identifier (III.A). This identifier allows RSA to report an unduplicated count of
individuals receiving services in accordance with the Joint WIOA Performance
Information Collection Request (Joint Performance ICR). The unique identifier will also
be used to calculate a count of unique program participants for each State, which will be
reported on the State Performance Reporting Template. In addition, the unique identifier
provides RSA a means to communicate with agencies regarding an individual’s data
elements without the exchange of Personally Identifiable Information (PII). RSA will use
the data elements in the table below to identify a unique individual within a data set.
Table 1.1: Individual Identification Data Elements
Date Element
Report Due Date
III.A
Unique Identifier, and
III.B
Social Security Number
If an individual does not have a Social Security Number (SSN) or chooses not to provide
an SSN, only the Unique Identifier is reported. An individual’s SSN is reported only once
to RSA with the Unique Identifier. After that, the Unique Identifier is the only unique
individual data element reported with each data submission.
REPORTING MANUAL FOR THE CASE SERVICE REPORT (RSA-911)

Data Elements
D.
Each data element has an associated data element type that serves as a guide for
submitting valid values.
Table 1.2: RSA-911 Data Element Types
Data Type
Description
VARCHAR n
Data can include any letters or numbers with a maximum length
defined by “n”. All variable character (VARCHAR) data
elements that require numbers use only positive numbers.
DATE
(YYYYMMDD)
Data can include dates in the eight-digit format of year, month,
and day. All dates reported on the RSA-911 must be in the format
of (YYYYMMDD), where (YYYY) is year, (MM) is month and
(DD) is day.
For Year (YYYY): Record the calendar year using all four digits
of the year (e.g., 2016).
For Month (MM): Record the months using two digits (e.g., 01
for January, 02 for February, etc.)
For Day (DD): Record the day of the month using two digits.
When the day is a single digit, add a "0" prefix (e.g., 01, 02, 03,
etc.).
Decimal n,x
Data can include a decimal number with a total of number of “n”
digits, of which “x” can be after the decimal point.
INT n
Data can include any integer (whole number) with a maximum
length of integers as defined by “n”. All integers must be
positive.
REPORTING MANUAL FOR THE CASE SERVICE REPORT (RSA-911)
5
Due to the length of some of the data element descriptions, each data element has been
assigned an “Element Number” to make referencing a data element easier. “Element
Number” refers to the assigned data element number (e.g., element number 6 refers to
Social Security Number). When “data element” is used, the associated reference is to the
location in this document where that data element is located (e.g., data element III.B
refers to outline section III.B where the data element, Social Security Number is located).
The data elements have been categorized to indicate the point in the VR process when the
data should be collected. The data elements are designed to collect information at a
particular point (e.g., application, eligibility, IPE, etc.). In order to ensure data validity, it
is important that VR agencies collect and report the data at the correct time.
Data Submission E.
RSA-911 data must be submitted to RSA on a quarterly basis, no later than 45 days after
the end of each quarter in accordance with the following schedule:
Table 1.3: Reporting Dates
Reporting Period
Report Due Date
July 1 – September 30
November 15
October 1 – December 31
February 15
January 1 – March 31
May 15
April 1 – June 30
August 15
VR agencies will submit a comma delimited data file through an RSA-911 data portal via
RSA’s website, https://rsa.ed.gov. Though some elements may be left blank, a comma
delimited space must be included for each data element in each submission. The element
number refers to the location of the reported response in the comma delimited text string
(e.g., the second comma delimited position in the text file would be for Social Security
Number).
Each VR Director will receive a userid and password necessary to access the RSA-911
upload data webpage. The VR Director will be responsible for ensuring submission and
certification of the RSA-911 data on a quarterly basis. The VR Director may formally
delegate this responsibility to another individual who is authorized to certify the data on
behalf of the VR agency. End users will be required to reset the password periodically for
security purposes.
When uploading data, the RSA-911 upload webpage will capture the following data
elements:
1. Name of Individual Submitting Data – Entered by end user.
2. Title of Individual Submitting Data – Entered by end user.
3. Phone Number for Individual Submitting Data – Entered by end user.
4. Email Address for Individual Submitting Data – Entered by end user.
REPORTING MANUAL FOR THE CASE SERVICE REPORT (RSA-911)
6
End users will follow the RSA-911 webpage prompts to upload the data file. Prior to the
submission of the data, the VR Director, or individual formally delegated the authority to
submit the data on behalf of the VR Director, will be required to certify the following
statement:
By submitting this report, I certify to the best of my knowledge and belief that the
report is true, complete, and accurate, and the expenditures reported are for the
purposes and objectives set forth in the terms and conditions of the Federal award.
I am aware that any false, fictitious, or fraudulent information, or the omission of
any material fact, may subject me to criminal, civil or administrative penalties for
fraud, false statements, false claims or otherwise.
Edit Checks F.
RSA will maintain a comprehensive edit check table on RSA’s website,
https://www.rsa.ed.gov. The table will detail, by data element, the edit checks required to
ensure the integrity of data submissions. Edits describe constraints that should be
satisfied by the data. Each data submission will be analyzed to determine whether the
data is consistent with the edit checks. Data submissions that fail to pass the edit check
will be returned to the VR agency for correction and resubmission. Any corrections made
must be consistent with the agency’s electronic case management system and the
supporting documentation maintained by the agency.
RSA’s data editing process will utilize both hard and soft edits. Hard edits identify
records that “fail” based upon erroneous combinations or missing values. Soft edits are
constraints that identify (combinations of) values that are suspicious but not necessarily
incorrect.
Due to the number of data elements, RSA will not be issuing an edit check database
application to VR agencies. VR agencies are responsible for ensuring that any data
submitted conforms to edit check and data submission requirements.
WIOA Participant Individual Record Layout (WIOA PIRL) G.
The WIOA PIRL is derived from the Joint Performance ICR and provides a standardized
set of data elements, definitions, and reporting instructions that will be used to describe
the characteristics, activities, and outcomes of WIOA participants. Under the WIOA
PIRL, a “participant” for the purpose of the VR program is an individual who has an
approved and signed Individualized Plan for Employment (IPE) and has begun to receive
services. VR agencies are required to collect participant information that corresponds
with the data elements and descriptions delineated within the WIOA PIRL. Once
collected, RSA will then aggregate this information as specified in the WIOA Annual
Statewide Performance Report Specifications, which details the common data elements
and technical specifications necessary for calculation of the State and Local Area
performance report elements that will be used in reporting across all core programs.
Where there is a direct correlation between a WIOA PIRL data element and an RSA-911
data element, the WIOA PIRL data element number and name have been included. There
REPORTING MANUAL FOR THE CASE SERVICE REPORT (RSA-911)
7
are additional WIOA PIRL data elements that must be calculated from other RSA-911
data elements. A list of the calculated WIOA PIRL data elements and the methodology
used to calculate them will be posted on RSA’s website, https://www.rsa.ed.gov.
Pre-Employment Transition Services H.
The data elements in the table below are the only ones required if an individual is
receiving pre-employment transition services and has not applied for or been determined
eligible for VR services.

According to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, no persons are required to respond to a collection of
information unless such collection displays a valid OMB control number. Public reporting burden for this
collection of information is estimated to average 1,604 hours per response, including time for reviewing
instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and
reviewing the collection of information. The obligation to respond to this collection is mandatory as required by
the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended. Send comments regarding the burden estimate or any other aspect of
this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing this burden, to the U.S. Department of
Education, Rehabilitation Services Administration, Data Unit, 400 Maryland Ave., SW, Washington, DC 20202-
2800 or email ICDocketMgr@ed.gov and reference the OMB Control Number 1820-0508.

Unique Identifier Data Elements III.
Each individual must be assigned a twelve-digit unique identifier. The Unique Identifier must be
submitted quarterly for all applicants and eligible individuals, as well as students with a
disability who are solely receiving pre-employment transition services and who have not yet
applied for VR services. If an individual does not have an SSN or chooses not to provide an
SSN, then only the Unique Identifier is reported. An individual’s SSN is reported only one time
to RSA with the Unique Identifier. After that, the Unique Identifier is the only unique individual
data element reported with each data submission. Once either of these data elements has been
reported, the data elements may ONLY be changed by contacting RSA Data Unit staff to initiate
a modification.
Unique Identifier A. Report: Each Data Submission
Data Type: VARCHAR 12 Change: New
Element Number: 5 Multiple Values Allowed: No
Data entry is required if individual is receiving pre-employment transition services.
WIOA PIRL data element number 100, Unique Individual Identifier.
When assigning the identifier, the first two digits are the State’s Postal Code (IV.D.1)
followed by a unique ten-digit number that is not associated with the individual’s SSN.
The number must not duplicate any other assigned unique identifiers.
REPORTING MANUAL FOR THE CASE SERVICE REPORT (RSA-911)
11
When assigning a unique identifier, ensure that the same twelve-digit identifier is used in
subsequent years for the same individual if additional service records are opened for the
individual in the future. When a Blind or General agency in the same State identifies that
an individual has been or is being served by the other agency, every effort should be
made to ensure the same unique identifier is used for both agencies. This is necessary in
order to obtain an unduplicated count of individuals being served in a State.
Social Security Number B. Report: When Available
Data Type: VARCHAR 9 Change: None
Element Number: 6 Multiple Values Allowed: No
Must be left blank after initial report.
Enter data, if available, for individuals receiving pre-employment transition services.
Record the individual’s nine-digit SSN. Please note that if no SSN is provided, the
individual’s wage information cannot be verified through unemployment insurance data
and would need to be determined through supplemental information.
Data Elements at Application IV.
The data elements contained in this section are to be reported for each individual who has
submitted an application to receive services under the VR program during the quarter. Some of
these data elements, as indicated below, must also be reported for students with disabilities who
are receiving pre-employment transition services and have not submitted an application to
receive VR services consistent with the start date of pre-employment transition services.
Date of Application A. Report: Upon Occurrence
Data Type: DATETIME (YYYYMMDD) Change: Revised
Element Number: 7 Multiple Values Allowed: No
Record the date (year, month, and day) that the agency received a completed and signed
application form for VR services from the applicant. The date must be verifiable through
supporting documentation.
If a student with a disability is receiving pre-employment transition services only and has
not submitted an application for VR services this data element should be left blank and,
as stated above, the Start Date of Pre-Employment Transition Services (X.A) is reported.
However, if the individual has submitted an application to receive VR services other than
pre-employment transition services, this data element is required.

Race Reporting (IV.C.2-IV.C.6) General Information:
Race information should be recorded for all individuals whose service records were
opened in the quarter being reported. For students or youth with disabilities in elementary
or secondary education, reporting on race is required. If such students or youth refuses to
identify his/her race, the counselor should, at a minimum, notify the individual that if
he/she fails to self-identify, an observer-identification method will be used. The counselor
or interviewer would then provide the best assessment of the individual's race. This
guidance is consistent with the Department of Education's and the Office of Management
and Budget’s (OMB's) standards for collecting race data.
For individuals not in elementary or secondary education, self-identification is required to
the greatest extent possible. It is generally expected that the information recorded will
reflect the individual’s own identification of race from the categories provided. Observer
identification is not required for individuals with disabilities who are not in elementary or
secondary education.
When reporting on multi-racial individuals, use more than one race variable indicating
the individual is of that race (i.e., more than one code value 1). If the individual is not in
REPORTING MANUAL FOR THE CASE SERVICE REPORT (RSA-911)

elementary or secondary education and refuses to self-identify, record code value 9 to
indicate the individual did not self-identify.
Agencies may leave the data element blank only for individuals with Type of Exit
(XVII.B) code value 0 (Individual exited as an applicant, prior to eligibility determination
or trial work). For example, if an individual applies for services via an application form
or letter and exits the agency without being seen by agency personnel, this individual's
race would not be known and could not be observed and therefore all race codes would
be left blank.

consistent with the Department of Education’s and OMB’s standards for
collecting ethnicity data.
If the elementary or secondary student or youth self-identifies as Hispanic or
Latino, but refuses or is unable to identify one or more race categories in addition,
code the student or youth as Hispanic or Latino for ethnicity and follow the
observer-identification method as described above for the race categories.
For individuals not in secondary education, self-identification is required to the
greatest extent possible. It is generally expected that the information recorded will
reflect the individual’s own identification of ethnicity. Observer identification is
not required for individuals with disabilities who are not in elementary or
secondary education.
If the individual is not in secondary education and refused to self-identify, record
9 to indicate that the individual did not self-identify ethnicity. Individuals who
identify as Hispanic (an individual of Cuban, Mexican, Puerto Rican, South or

with at least a significant disability and may be classified in a more significantly disabled
category consistent with the VR agency's approved criteria.
An individual with a significant disability is an individual:
a) who has a physical or mental impairment that seriously limits one or more functional
capacities (such as mobility, communication, self-care, self-direction, interpersonal
skills, work tolerance, or work skills) in terms of an employment outcome; AND
b) whose VR can be expected to require multiple VR services over an extended period
of time; AND
c) who has one or more physical or mental disabilities resulting from amputation,
arthritis, autism, blindness, burn injury, cancer, cerebral palsy, cystic fibrosis,
deafness, head injury, heart disease, hemiplegia, hemophilia, respiratory or pulmonary
dysfunction, intellectual disability, mental illness, multiple sclerosis, muscular
dystrophy, musculo-skeletal disorders, neurological disorders (including stroke and
epilepsy), spinal cord conditions (including paraplegia and quadriplegia), sickle cell
anemia, specific learning disability, end-stage renal disease, or another disability or
combination of disabilities determined on the basis of an assessment for determining
eligibility and VR needs to cause comparable substantial functional limitation.
Individuals are to be coded as most significantly disabled if they meet the VR
agency's definition of most significantly disabled using criteria consistent with the
statutory definition of most significantly disabled described in section 101(a)(5)(c) of
the Act as amended.

This data element captures cash earnings of the individual expressed as an hourly
wage and includes all wages, salaries, tips, profits from self-employment and

gross income minus unreimbursed business expenses. Do not include estimates of
in-kind payments, such as meals and lodging. Estimate profits of farmers, if
necessary.
Where wages are based on commissions that are irregular (e.g., real estate,
automobile sales, etc.), they should be calculated as an average hourly wage over
a representative period of time, such as one month or one quarter, to obtain a
reportable figure. Commissions are generally not paid when earned, but rather are
paid periodically, such as weekly, biweekly, or even monthly. To bring
standardization to this data element, wages should be based on the actual receipt
of the payment and not on amounts accruing until the next commission payout.

Classification (SOC) code that best describes the individual’s occupation that is
consistent with the employment goal on the individual's IPE. If the individual is not
employed, leave blank.
For individuals with multiple jobs, this data element should be populated with the code
for the occupation consistent with the employment goal on an individual's IPE and
primary SOC codes from which the exiting individual derives the majority of their
weekly earnings. The following procedures should be followed to determine which
occupation code to use:
a. If the earnings amounts of the multiple jobs are reported at the time of entering the
occupation code, enter the occupation consistent with the employment goal specified
on the IPE that encompasses the majority of the earnings per week at closure.
b. If the earnings amounts of the various jobs are not reported at the time of entry, the
occupation code should be populated with the code for the occupation consistent with
the employment goal specified on the IPE that encompasses the majority of the hours
worked per week at closure.
c. If neither hours nor wages per occupation are known, then individual self-reporting of
the primary occupation consistent with the employment goal specified on the IPE
should be used to determine the appropriate occupation code.

Hourly Wage at Employment
D. Data Type: DECIMAL 5,2 Change: New
Element Number: 351 Multiple Values Allowed: No
Record the hourly wage including cents earned after achieving employment consistent
with the employment goal on an individual’s IPE. If the individual is employed in more
than one job that is consistent with the employment goal on the individual’s IPE, record
the hourly wage for the primary source of income.
This data element captures cash earnings of the individual at the time employment was
achieved as an hourly wage and includes all wages, salaries, tips, profits from self-
employment and commissions received as income. These earnings are before payroll
deductions of Federal, State and local income taxes and Social Security payroll tax are
taken.
Wages for salespersons, consultants, self-employed individuals, and other similar
occupations are based on the adjusted gross income. Adjusted gross income is gross
income minus unreimbursed business expenses. Do not include estimates of payments in-
kind, such as meals and lodging. Estimate profits of farmers, if necessary.
Where wages are based on commissions that are irregular (e.g., real estate, automobile
sales, etc.), they should be calculated as an hourly wage average over a representative
period of time such as one month or one quarter to obtain a meaningful figure.
Commissions are generally not paid when earned, but rather are paid periodically, such as
weekly, biweekly, or even monthly. To bring standardization to this data element, wages
should be based on the actual receipt of the payment and not on amounts accruing until
the next commission payout.
If the individual was unemployed and/or generated no earnings or did not achieve an
employment outcome, record 0.
