Step 1: Regent Award first evaluates all the scenarios that will not make an ISIR active. Users may view these cases in the Make this the Active ISIR column on the Appendix where the value is “No.”
If the ISIR meets one of these criteria, Regent Award stops reviewing and marks the ISIR as “Not Active.”
Step 2: If the ISIR does not meet some criteria from Step 1, Regent Award evaluates the scenarios that will make an ISIR Active. Users can view these cases in the Make this the Active ISIR column on the attached spreadsheet where the value is “Yes.”
...
Regent Review Smart Forms
...
Regent Award offers the Verification Worksheet and Verification Worksheet-V5 ‘Verification Worksheet (VWS),’for the V1 group, and ‘Verification Worksheet (VWS) -V5,’ for the V5 group, as a Smart Form via Regent Review product licensing. When a student’s ISIR is selected for V1 or V5 verification, Regent Award populates the applicable appropriate document in a ‘Needed’ status. This form allows the student to complete the verification worksheet questionnaire online via the Regent Student Portal, displaying only the questions required for the student’s verification group.
...
If a subsequent ISIR is imported with a change to the student’s verification group after the student has started or completed the Verification Worksheet, Regent Award populates a Verification ‘Verification Worksheet-Change Change’document,which will include any question required for verification for the new verification group. Information previously provided by the student will be prepopulated and the student will have the ability to review and edit any previously provided information prior to submission. Regent Award will also ‘Waive’ the original Verification Worksheet form so it does not appear as the student must complete both.
Regent Award will only auto-populate the initial Verification Worksheet once per FAY (apart from a change to the verification group as mentioned above.) Therefore, if inconsistencies are found during the verification process and corrections are required by the student, the User must ‘Waive’ the original Verification Worksheet document status and manually add the ‘Verification ‘Verification Worksheet-Revised Request’. The User should also add a ‘Reason’ on the document to display on the Student Portal.
...
Regent Award supports the verification process via the ISIR Verification/Correction Wizard. As documents are reviewed, ISIRs can be verified and/or corrected without being transmitted to the Central FAFSA Processing System (CPSFPS). When all documents have been reviewed and satisfied, ISIR verification (and any ISIR corrections) can be completed, using the ISIR Verification/Correction Wizard, and the ISIR marked ‘Verified’.
Users must set the flag ‘Mark Corrections for Submission to CPS’ FPS’ to ‘Yes’ in the ISIR Verification/Correction Wizard for ISIRs requiring correction. Users can also set the ‘Packaging Options’ selection to override the default setting and allow packaging against the current active ISIR EFC or use the corrected Active ISIR EFC, rather than waiting for the corrected ISIR to come back from CPSFPS. Any ISIR flagged for submission to CPS FPS is captured in the ISIR Correction file during the next Export ISIR Correction process.
...
The Export ISIR Correction process schedule will be defined in the [CLIENT] Runbook. This process writes the output to the sFTP ISIRCorrection folder for pickup and submission to CPSFPS.
Ready for Verification
...
Students are required to provide proof of identity if they are selected for the V4 or V5 verification group. Upon importing the ISIR, Regent Award populates a Proof of Identity and Statement of Educational Purpose document in a ‘Needed’ status. The student is required to complete the document. If the student is unable to complete the document in person, the student may provide a notarized copy of the Proof of Identity and Statement of Educational Purpose form. Once the high school completion documentation is received and the Proof of Identity and Statement of Educational Purpose form is completed, the user may update the results of the identity and high school completion status in Regent Award for transmission to CPSFPS.
Export Student Identity
...
The Identity Verification Results Wizard is accessed via the ISIR tab and allows the user to select one of the following identity verification results for a student:
Verification completed in person, no issues found
Verification completed using notary, no issues found
Verification attempted, issues found with identity
Verification attempted, issues found with HS completion
No response from applicant or unable to locate
Verification attempted, issues found with both identity and HS completion
...
The school has sixty (60) days, from the date of the earliest ISIR with V4 or V5 value was imported, to report the appropriate Identity Verification results. After sixty (60) days have elapsed and an ISIR Identity Verification value has not been reported, Regent Award will automatically set the identity verification result value to “5 - No response from applicant or unable to locate” when the Export ISIR Identity Verification process is executed.
...
The Export Identity Verification Results Process is scheduled to run daily as described in the [CLIENT] Runbook. The process writes the output to a file on the sFTP site in the ExportISIRIdentityVerification folder for pickup and submission to CPSFPS.
Auto Setting the Identity Verification Value
In Regent Award the Export ISIR Identify Verification Process screen has a configurable option to the "Export Students with No Response." If an ISIR Identity Verification value has not been provided for the student, the Regent Award can automatically set the student's ISIR Identity Verification value to “5” (“No response from applicant or unable to locate”) and flag the student for export. The schools can select the number of days from the time verification documents were assigned to the student to when the Regent Award will automatically set the student's Identity Verification value to "5."
...
Unusual Enrollment History History ⚖️
The Internal UEH Review document can be configured to an ‘Office Use Only’ document that is auto-populated in a ‘Received’ status upon the ISIR Import for students with a 359 276 or 360 277 C-Code. The ‘Review Student Document(s)’ task can be configured to trigger upon the Internal UEH Review document being populated in a ‘Received’ status and will be assigned in the Review UEH/Conflicting Information task queue for the initial review. The Internal UEH Review document can be configured to block packaging and disbursements. This functionality is introduced in the Document Management BPA.
...
If no ISIR exists for the student for a FAY, it will be made active
Subsequent ISIR will automatically be made active if:
ISIR was pushed by CPS FPS
ISIR was corrected by the school
ISIR was corrected by the student AND it resolved a C-code or reject
Subsequent ISIR may be made active manually if the ISIR was corrected by the student AND it created a C-code, rejected or flagged the ISIR for verification
If an ISIR is made active manually, and the transaction number is the same as, or higher than the prior active ISIRs transaction number, the normal document assignment rules will apply at the time the ISIR is made active, and document requirements will be assigned to the student. Documents will also be auto-satisfied or auto-waived based on the functionality described below.
If an ISIR is made active manually, but the new active ISIR has a lower transaction number than the previously active ISIR, the ISIR-related document requirements will not be auto-assigned or auto-satisfied.
...
Regent Award is updated annually to accommodate ISIR processing regulatory changes for the upcoming Federal Award Years. Schools will be notified by Regent once the updates have been applied to the Regent Award application.
ISIR Related Tasks
Task Type | Triggering Event | Task Description |
Review |
FPS Generated/Pushed ISIR
| An ISIR has been modified by |
FPS. | ISIR field “Transaction Data Source/Type Code” contains any of the following values: 5D-Drug abuse hold release 5L- Identity hold release |
FPS system-generated signature |
FPS- Identity Verification | ||
Review New Inactive ISIR | Subsequent ISIR is received but is not set as the active ISIR. Often student is the source.
| A new ISIR record is loaded and ISIR is NOT set as the active ISIR. Only one task will be created per student. |
Review Subsequent Unclean ISIR | A subsequent unclean ISIR has been received and must be reviewed. | Subsequent ISIR is received after the first ‘Active’ ISIR for a given FAY, which is:
|
Review ATB Data | Grandfathered ATB flag does not match ISIR data | If the Grandfathered ATB flag = False and the {active} ISIR shows the value for HS Diploma = “None of the Above” or = "Blank" |
Review Dependent Record Unsub Only | Review Dependent Record Unsub Only | ISIR is imported in to Regent Award and the Special Circumstances flag equals 4 - Dependent record unsubsidized loans only |
Review Potential IASG | Student's ISIR contains IASG Award eligibility criteria. | Student has not exceeded Pell LEU of 600% (LEU < 600%), and has the following ISIR flags:
|
Review Unclean ISIR | An unclean ISIR has been received and must be reviewed. | When an unclean ISIR is received (Active ISIR is received which is rejected, selected for verification, or which generates new document requirements - more details below) Unclean ISIR:
|
Review Verification Tracking Group Change | Verification Group has changed on the student's ISIR. Re-verification required. | The previous Active ISIR’s Verification Status was Verified and now, through the import of a new ISIR, the student is placed into a different Verification Group, therefore, their ISIR needs to be verified again.
A new task when:
|
Review Change in Dependency Status | New Active ISIR has a different dependency values for the same FAY. | During the "Import ISIR" and "Import ISIR Reprocess" processes when the new Active ISIR has a different value in the "Dependency Status" field (field #172 on 18-19 ISIR) than the previous Active ISIR for the same FAY. If this task already exists in a status other than "Completed," "Waived," or "Closed," and the task trigger criteria are still met, Regent Award will not re-trigger the task. |
Ready to Package (RTP) File
...
Students that have a ‘clean’ ISIR appear on the RTP file in a “Ready to Package” status. For an ISIR to be considered ‘clean’ all the Ready to Package criteria must be met:
The active ISIR transaction for the FAY is clean (i.e. not selected for verification and does not populate any documents that restrict packaging).
If the active ISIR has been selected for verification, it must have a verification status or inherited verification status = "Verified".
The current active ISIR does not have a ‘Correction Status’ of ‘Corrected’, ‘Marked for Transmission’, or ‘Transmitted’.
All student documents that are setup to Restrict Packaging and/or Disbursement and are associated to the FAY of the ISIR (AY and PP scope also have a FAY association) or student-scoped are in ‘Satisfied’ or ‘Waived’ status.
All ISIR tasks (i.e. subsequent unclean ISIR) that are setup to restrict packaging for the FAY are in a status of ‘Completed’, ‘Closed’ or ‘Waived’.
Pending Status
The Ready to Package process notifies the packaging system that the student should be held from packaging by resending the student on the RTP file with a packaging status of “Pending”. A packaging status of “Pending” can only be set if the student was previously sent with a “Ready to Package” status. If a student is determined to not be ready to package, and they were not previously sent on the RTP file, the student is not sent on the RTP file.
