This Program Instruction clarifies the March 17, 1998 guidance (TANF-ACF-PI-98-1) on the measures and formula we intend to use for awarding the FY 1999 High Performance bonuses and to provide State agencies the reporting form and instructions for submitting aggregate data in order to compete for these bonus awards.  Where this Program Instruction reflects changes/clarifications to the March 17, 1998 guidance, it supersedes that earlier guidance.
