The Individualized Plan for Employment (IPE) is to be reviewed at least annually to assess progress toward achieving the job goal.

The annual review is mandated by law and regulation. The review cannot be waived by either the client or the agency.

There is a 90 day time period within which the annual review must be conducted, beginning 60 days before the anniversary date of IPE approval and ending 30 days after the anniversary date.

The opportunity to voluntarily participate in the cost of services over the next 12 months should be offered during the Annual Review.

Nebraska Revised Statute §32‐310 requires that Nebraska VR provide the opportunity to individuals with a disability to register to vote. This opportunity is to be offered at the time an individual applies for services, participates in an annual review, or notifies VR of an address change.

2    Be at least 18 years of age on or before the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November;
3    Live in the State of Nebraska;
