Invalid Initial English Language Acquisition Status Code For Newly Enrolled Student

Understanding the Error:

The system is trying to ensure that an English Language Acquisition Status (ELAS) Code of "RFEP" is not submitted for a student who is newly enrolled in a California public school. Students who have been previously Reclassified Fluent-English Proficient (RFEP) in another state must still be assessed with the CELDT. Therefore--- their initial ELAS Code should always be either "TBD"--- "EO"--- or "IFEP"

Things to check in the submission:

Verify that any students enrolling for the first time in a California public school have an ELAS Code of "TBD"--- "EO"--- or "IFEP". Suggested Resolution: Update the ELAS Code to "TBD"--- "EO"--- or "IFEP" and resubmit the file.
