The Live-In Exemption
Consumers and PCAs who live together “permanently” or for an “extended period of time” do not need to use EVV with each other.
- Definition of “permanently:” The PCA lives, works, and sleeps at the same home as the Consumer-employer seven days per week, and therefore, has no home of his or her own other than the one in which the Consumer-employer lives.
- Definition of “Extended period of time:” The PCA lives, works, and sleeps at the same home as the Consumer-employer for five days a week (120 hours or more). If the PCA spends less than 120 hours per week working and sleeping at the same home as the Consumer but spends five consecutive days or nights per week residing together with the Consumer, this is also considered an “extended period of time.”
If you think you are eligible for the Live-In Exemption, you must complete the form below and send it back to Tempus FI. Eligible Consumers and PCAs must submit a new Live-In Exemption form every year.
Please read through the entire form before signing it. Incomplete or incorrect forms will not be processed.

| You CANNOT request an exemption until it is your turn to start using EVV. Tempus FI will send you an Onboarding Letter before it is your turn to use EVV. If you have not received an Onboarding Letter from Tempus FI, do NOT request an exemption. |
The Safety Exemption
A small number of Consumers, Surrogates, and PCAs have special safety needs because they are the victims of domestic violence, stalking, or harassment. For these individuals, it may be unsafe to use location services on their smart device.
The Safety Exemption is for Consumers, Surrogates, and PCAs who cannot use the EVV system because they have a serious safety issue, like being the victim of domestic violence, stalking, or harassment.
If you think you qualify for the Safety exemption, contact the Tempus FI Safety Liaison at EVVSafety@tempusunlimited.org or call Tempus at 1-877-479-7577 from 8:30 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. EST and request to speak with the Safety Liaison.
