Section 25-11-13

Income Eligibility Verification System.

(a) The state shall maintain an Income Eligibility Verification System (IEVS), which meets the requirements of Section 1137(a), Social Security Act, for the purpose of verifying income for determining welfare assistance eligibility.

(b) Employers, including state and local government entities and labor organizations, shall submit quarterly wage reports to the department. The Secretary of Labor, in consultation with the Secretary of Health and Human Services and the Secretary of Agriculture, may waive this reporting requirement if he or she determines that the state has in effect an alternative system which is as effective and timely for purposes of providing employment related income and eligibility data.
