Season 1, Episode 90

July 6, 2026

Length: 9:53

This week’s episode jumps across the ODHS multiverse, where time entry, SNAP accuracy, Transformation, First Contact and retirement planning all have their own portal, deadline and very specific set of instructions.

The episode begins with a payroll update: starting with the August mid-month payroll run for the Aug. 14 pay date, DAS will stop auto-approving unsubmitted or unapproved mid-month time entry. From there, the episode covers Oregon’s 2025 SNAP payment error rate, Oregon City’s Transformation work after the 2023 flood, OEP’s First Contact project and Oregon Savings Growth Plan training available through the end of July.
