An additional payment is available when the individual’s wages at successful closure is 25% above the Department of Labor’s prevailing wage or higher of the most recent year for comparable positions. To receive payment for exceptional wages, the JPSP must request such payment and provide documentation of the individual’s wage exceeding the prevailing wage. The DVR Rehabilitation Counselor must file this documentation in the individual’s case file. Find more information about Exceptional Wage Calculation here.
Authorization: The DVR Rehabilitation Counselor authorizes when Milestone 2 is paid (if applicable, and the wage is verified with the individual). Payment is made directly before closure if requested by the JPSP and documentation verifies that criteria for payment are met.
