Request for Payment forms must be submitted 2 months following the month child care services were provided. All forms must be submitted by the close of the last business day of the month in which the form is due.

Example:

If child care is incurred for the service month of May, the last day the form can be submitted is up to the close of the last business day in July, to be considered as received within the 2 month time frame.

Exception:

Payment Request forms for the month prior to application, when assistance is requested for the prior month, must be submitted within 3 months from the month child care services were provided.

Example:

Household applied on May 25th and requested assistance for the prior month of April. The household was approved June 20th including the prior month of April. The payment request form for the service month of April must be submitted no later than the last business day of July.

 

If a form is received after the 2 or 3 month time period, the household must be notified in writing that payment cannot be made because the billing report form was received after the 2 or 3 month time limit.
