The following edits have been revised so that they apply only to placements that started on or after July 1, 2009:

• U18.2-1 Since "Is employment expected to be full- or part-time?" is NOT "Part-time", "If part-time, number of hours per week expected" must be blank.
• U18.2-2 Since "Is employment expected to be full- or part-time?" is "Part-time", "If part-time, number of hours per week expected" must be valued.

The following changes to data validation were included:

• For this year only, the process to select the eligibility sample has been revised to include only those records with an initial assignment date between 12/1/2008 and 6/30/2009.
• The process to select both the eligibility and performance samples has been revised to
• avoid sampling retired sub-grantees;
• exclude records of applicants who withdrew their applications;
• exclude enrollment records without assignments; and
• include Recovery Act records without increasing size of sample.
• The last updated date has been displayed for the waiver elements in the performance sample.
• An indicator to identify the grant has been added to the DV Worksheets and in the summary-level info for selected records.
• The Summary and Analytical Report will not be available until a future release.

In this release we also included changes to the edits to ensure valid data:

• Addition of 15 new edits.
• Revision of 11 existing edits.

These edits changes are detailed in this file.
