Ms. DeJanes,

Thank you for your reply this evening to my recent ORR asking for:

1) Copies of any and all electronic records and/or documents that illustrate or reveal the number of illegal aliens who are recipients of the federal Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program who have applied to GADOL for unemployment benefits from June 15, 2012 to today’s date.

2) Copies of any and all electronic records and/or documents that illustrate or reveal the number of illegal aliens who are recipients of the federal Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program who have applied to GADOL for unemployment benefits from January 12, 2023 to today’s date.

3) Copies of any and all electronic records and/or documents that illustrate or reveal the number of illegal aliens who are recipients of the federal Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program who have been approved for unemployment benefits and have or are collecting unemployment benefits administered by GADOL, June 15, 2012 to today’s date.

4) Copies of any and all electronic records and/or documents that illustrate or reveal the number of illegal aliens who are recipients of the federal Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program who have been approved for unemployment benefits and have or are collecting unemployment benefits administered by GADOL, from January 12, 2023 to today’s date.

As you seem to, I also enjoy a measure of jocularity in state government, transparency and the administration of public benefits. Your response that your office does not have any documents responsive to that request is quite amusing. As is your advice that I direct my request for open records from GADOL to the federal Dept. of Homeland Security. Good one. I’ll save it for future use.

As a new and seperate ORR:

A) Including paper and electronic versions please send me copies of any and all current applications, documents and forms that any and all applicants for unemployment benefit payments must submit to collect those payments.

B) Including paper and electronic versions, please send me copies of all current GADOL documents and forms that illustrate and explain eligibility for Georgia unemployment benefits.

C) Including paper and electronic versions, please send me copies of all current GADOL documents, applications and forms that are related to the appeal process at GADOL for applicants who have been denied benefits on the initial application process.

Please reply in a timely and lawful period.

Thank you,

D.A. King

The below open records request to TCSG is pasted in reverse order – my original ORR is on the bottom., most recent reply on top.

D.A. King,

Thank you for your patience, D.A., and for taking the time to submit your Open Records Request. Pursuant to subparagraph (b)(I)(A) of O.C.G.A. 50-18-71, we are responding in a reasonable timeframe. You have requested copies of SAVE affidavits, applications, and Secure and Verifiable ID documents collected from specified employer participants in the apprenticeship program.

At this time, the requested records do not exist. The awarded companies were recently announced, and we are in the initial stages of the contracting process. This process includes the hiring of apprentices, submission of required documentation, and the verification of information prior to contracts to be drafted and executed.

It is anticipated that the requested records may become available by late February or early March. It would be best to submit a new request at that time to obtain the information.

Should you have any additional questions or require further clarification, please do not hesitate to contact our office.

When submitting future requests, use our ORR portal: Legal Services – TCSG | Technical College System of Georgia

Kind regards,

Leigh Keever
