No worker left behind???

hmmm...it does not say that on the website and I called Michigan Works to find out if I need to update my file and they did not mention it. Is the freeze for all applicants or just new ones? I was approved in August but I am just waiting to be accepted in a program.

Yes, I'm already in the program. I contacted my case worker back in September. He just told me to sit tight and keep waiting as his boss will need to approve each case individually and there's a very long queue.

I've been waiting for the "No Worker Left Behind" voucher since July. I was accepted into the nursing program in August. My school didn't fill out the ITA cost plan in time, therefore my case manger said that I would have 2 use my grant for next semester. I'm still waiting on my voucher and it is November. I called my case manager yesterday because next semester will be starting soon and she said that there was a freeze. My case manager is located in Port Huron. She said that since my school didn't do what they were suppose 2 do on time, that I still can get the grant, but since there is a freeze I would have 2 wait and that I am high on the waiting list. I called my school FA dept yesterday because they calculated my No worker Left Behind grant into my tuition, and the FA advisor told me that I was ok because my financial aid and student loans covered my tuition w/o the No worker Left Behind grant. So my advice 2 u is 2 ask your case manager, because mine did tell me that there was a freeze....

That sucks. My case worker has yet to email me back on any question I have and the Michigan Works says I have to go through them, so I am guessing that is their way of telling me about the freeze.
