About this file
This is a Customer Services Report form for Orientation and Mobility (O&M) Training services administered by the Texas Workforce Commission (TWC) Vocational Rehabilitation (VR) Services division. The VR2896 form serves as the primary documentation and billing instrument for O&M training providers delivering services to VR customers across Texas. The form captures detailed training information organized into five skill areas: Basic Cane Skills, Indoor Skills, Outdoor Skills, Intersection Skills, and Extra Skills (such as college campus navigation, rural travel, and airport/terminal access). Providers must document the date, location, hours, and description for each lesson provided within each skill area category and report cumulative training hours approved at assessment, hours provided to date, hours provided in the current month, and hours requested for the next service authorization period.
The form requires certification and signatures from the Orientation and Mobility Specialist and the Director (for Traditional-Bilateral Contractors), with the Director required to maintain UNTWISE credentials. VR staff complete a technical review verifying provider qualifications, accuracy of service delivery documentation, adherence to service dates and standards, appropriate invoicing, and compliance with group training limits (maximum three customers per session). The VR Counselor or OIB Worker conducts a final review confirming detailed narratives of skills addressed, training locations, anticipated future training, explanations of any deviations from assessment recommendations, and cumulative progress documentation. Approval to pay invoices depends on satisfactory completion of all verification steps and confirmation that services met customer needs and specifications outlined in the VR Standards for Providers and individual service authorizations.
